LET THEM CONTINUE AND LET SEE WHO WILL CRY LAST. I KNOW SOME PEOPLE WILL SEE THIS AS A GOOD NEWS JUST LIKE THE POSTER BELOW THE FTC. I KNOW WE HAVE A COMPETENT AND STRICT PRESIDO. NIGER DELTA POWER RANGERS SHOULD KONTINU IN MAMA PEACE VOICE.

Let the government implement the report f 2014 confab for a start. Billions of naira was spent on it and all the regions and civil organisations in the country were involved in the excercise.

It is crass arrogance and unbridled pride to rubbish and sweep the report under the carpet by a minority.

The report, restructuring, regionalism or con-federation or this country will never know peace.

Righteousness exalts a nation. Dishonesty has been and continues to be used to govern Nigeria which is why it can know no peace or progress.

The census figure is a fraud. How can sane people use inaccurate statistics to plan and expect success ?

Nigeria's life-span ended in december 2014 which calls for re-negotiation where there is honesty but no one is talking about that.
Governing is not for bosses but for leaders. Nigeria has suffered the unfortunate rule of Bosses rather than Leaders since 1976 to date and thats why they will never get it.

For the avoidance of doubt, i am a bona fide Ooduan and have no pleasure in a fraudulent Nigeria.
Nigeria has become a depraved society where nothing, i mean nothing, works.

Between July 1976 and now, enough money has been stolen by a syndicate of the military, politicians and civil servants to make Nigeria three times better than Dubai. In 1976, Dubai was virtually a desert land.

While Dubai is governed by humans, Nigeria has been in the firm grip of animals in human clothing.

The other day, i saw pictures of certain locations of Lagos Island of just the 70s and i wept with nostalgia.
I remembered them all, still have them in my memory, including the LMTS ( Lagos Municipal Transport Service) bus. I wept for this country.
The eye-sores that we call mega cities today are nothing compared to the neatness and orderliness of those days as recorded in those pictures.

Every society strives for improvement but not so Nigeria except in everything sordid.

I want Oodua republic. Nigeria union has been a curse for the naturally-endowed rather than blessing.

Call me what you will, am entitled to my freedom of expression.

EasternLeopard:
You don't insult and fight the regions that feed the Nation.
Imagine calling these regions 5% and threatening them.

Any attack on any community will see ICC hand coving Buhari and his low IQ supporters

Buhari good morning.

Whats the correlation between "the regions that feed the nation" and "5%" ?

What is "hot" protest for Gods' sake ?
We have a way of making mockery of things in Nigeria.

Are we speaking english or slang or pidgin ?

ak47mann:
Onitsha facing the same pollution just like china bejin this is what you suffer when a city are congested with numerous factories litter every corner hereby causing air pollution

You are suffering from self-delusion. Is Onitsha and Beijin the only cities in the world "littered" with factories ?
Do you even have more factories in Onitsha than Lagos ?
Accept the accurate verdict and stop cock-eyed statements that won't jell.

Karanka:
I see a lot of folks here don't understand what the post is talking about. Being the most polluted city in the world doesn't generally denote dirtiness; rather,it is based on the particulate matters generated from the city which is in the air. These particulate matters come from sources like soots from vehicles,industries, construction activities,wood-burning etc - generally, industrialization. It's almost a problem with fast growing cities where a lot of industrial activities go on. Countries like China,Saudi Arabia etc have been battling with this for long. Air pollution poses health risks,which can in turn affect the economy of a place. The Nigerian cities affected should simply enact effective policies to mitigate against this,even as they continue with their industrial boom.

Professor, teach thyself and don't turn WHO's award upside-down. The assessement was based on objectivity and not sentimentalism and tribalism a la nigeria. Three SE cities are in the top 10 in the world and one of them tops the list.
Keep your fraudulent idea to yourself and be silent. We can read better than you think.

Oui! Je suis sûr, le troisième à commenter ... lol

Je parle un peu français

Meme chose ici, je parle un petit peu francais. Mais tu essayes que moi.
Je vous en prie.

See how corruption brought together an unholy alliance of strange bedfellows -
Shiite, the nightmare of Ibos in the north plus the rejected "i-beg-to-apply" jews of Nigeria crying for the release of their respective leaders.

If only the FG can lock Zakzaki and Kanu up in the same cell. The outcome would make interesting news.

saintneo:
Oui! J'etais ici.

Est tu sur ?

juman:
Jonathan was able to do free and fair election that even those military generals could not do.

Point of correction- he didn't do it. He was fooled and cajoled into submission.

Nigeria And The Elusive Nationhood.


Countries are made up of units of communities, towns, cities, etc of different ethnic stocks and tribes of
peoples.

At the global level, the world is a conglomerate of nation-states. In each nation-state, tribes and ethnic stocks
form a subset of the nation. In other words, while nations are made up of
countries, countries cannot consist of nations with relative peace. Although
since relativity is always a factor in human dynamics, there may be exceptions to this rule.

A cursory look at some events in history will open our minds to the truth of the aforementioned analysis.

Former USSR and Yugoslavia.
These two entities were a perfect
examples of countries of nations forcefully held together by one factor or the other. And these were made up of largely civilized, enlightened and sophisticated peoples, so to say. But because nations forced together within a country are like a pent-up fury in a person or air bottled up in a tube, a little
provocation of the person or a puncture of the tube, the fury is vented with spleen on the provocator like air bursting out of the tube with gust. The re-enactment of these two factors in the countries in reference led to the inevitable
disintegration of them into their natural several nations.

Britain, a highly civilized and enlightened society is made up of four nations of England (the English), Scotland (the Scots or Scotish), Wales (the Welsh) and Ireland (the Irish). They have lived together as one people for decades but what most people may not have observed or known is that there had always been some little amount of racial schism under the surface. You have to get assimilated into the society to observe this. But inspite of their enlightenment and length of unionhood, Scotland attempted a
peaceful breakaway in a referendum of recent. Even the failed attempt does not guarantee a continued unionship for ever.

So, coming nearer home, Nigeria and nigerians do not possess what it takes to make a nation of nations. What with tribal and religious bigottry and a disparate
levels of emancipation, civilisation and enlightenment. Yakubu Gowon and those around him then realised this truth when he proclaimed that "the basis for Nigeria's unity did not exist". But unfortunately, he failed to do the needful. The factors they discovered as militating against Nigeria's unity at that time have since been
agravated and multiplied.

The earlier the nations that were forced into a marriage of inconvenience as represented in Nigeria are allowed to go their separate ways the better for all.

Some people, out of sheer ignorance use USA as an example of a nation that
Nigeria could become. But they fail to understand the simple fact that America is made up of immigrants. The only tribe that could lay claim to ownership of the nation are the Appalashians or the Red Indians but who are so infinitestimally small in number and primitive to exert any effort towards such goal. Matter of fact, the landing of Christopher Columbus and his group followed by the influx of migrants from different races of the world turned out to be a blessing rather than a curse to the natives, freedom rather than bondage, enlightenment instead of
primitiveness. No country in the world with such conglomerate of peoples of several races, can be a true nation like America. Even then, you still have rumblings of separatist schism - Texas as a case in point.

Whether we like to admit it or not, the different levels of civilization, ingrained tribal tendencies and irreconciliable religious dogma plus visionary differences inherent in Nigeria will forever stand in the way of nationhood.

Three distinct nations in the south of the country have active or dormant self-
determination groups waiting for a catalyst to spring into action while the deluded leaders of different ethnic groups who are only united by greed and corruption occasioned by the free flow of oil money pretend all is well.

To prevent an inevitable bloodshed, a recourse to regionalism or an experimental con-federation for 50 years should have been considered.

One finds it funny that Nigeria, as a legal entity, ceased to exist in 2014, yet, there is a treacherous silence rather than a
cacophony of incesant calls for a national conference of sort to re-negotiate the union or agree to divide peacefully.

My humble opinion though, as i do not arrogate absolute knowledge of the discourse to my person.

BushidoBlue:
It's no longer Abia state, it's now Imo state...

If you guys love Igbos so much that you will go to the extent of creating a devious lies and propagate hate that may lead to violence or genocide against the said Igbos, why don't you just let them have their nation so you can be without them and prevent yourself from going through all this hate?


Think about it..


You are recycling a lie just to show Igbos are evil.

While recreating the lie, you are adding more more lies to it..

Do you want the Igbos or not..

You don't even know what you want??

Wow....

I can't see the correlation between recounting an undeniable cannibalism of a section of a tribe and the agitation for seccession.
Always endeavour to dwell on the topic of discussion.
Yes, am all for biafra if that will make you happy.

Naija9090:
Y0ruba...go and focus on your people. Stop worrying about Igbos!

Ibos' brains have been so rewired to see anything and everything anti-Ibo as Yoruba.
Same way black South Africans saw the white people in all their problems. Years after the whitemen left them be, they remained so backward they can't even see the whiteman's tail-light.

In order words, the inferior is naturally programmed to believe that their problems emanate from their superiors.
Better pray to your chineke abiamah to give you 21st century wisdom.

Naija9090:
You don't mess with Igbos and Jews; both are known to pay eye for and eye as their progenitor Abraham thought them, they will chase you until complete revenge is achieved! Video below is a perfect example and expect same ruthlessness when Biiiafra is restored!

What about the weeping governor of Enugu ?



Enugu's governor not a nigerian "jew" ?

Ambo has quite righly arrived with the typical Oodua pedigree. More greese and Gods' wisdom and guidance.

Dino is a good example of nigeria's wastage that goes by the name of a national assembly.
Daylight robbery of the people and displaying the flamboyance to rob insult upon injury.
Nigeria is a big Fraud.

johnmartus:
This guy no get sense at all

You can say that again.

And so said the Word of God too.
Thanks to the learned and inspired justices of that court.

Get your husband my natural Herbal Tea and you will sing songs joy till the end.
The tea gives men the strength and hardness and confidence to perform their duties.

Where is the sales outlet for your tea ?

Please can you show me my hypocritical words

..."He who is without sin amongst you, let him first cast the stone at her. . ."

From the horse's mouth. Over to you, the most successful "business men" in nigeria.

1Tkester:
Don't mind those Sunnis. If they have an atom of brain, they would've realized that for Trump to swim across the murky waters of republican buccaneers, trashed the Bushes, trashed Cario Fiorina (who by the way was at a time the War party's choice), trashed Cruz and the favorite GOP boy Rubio, the game is over.

Clinton is still battling to win over Sanders fore more than 9 months and she has not been successful and you want to
compare her to the the DONALD? Who trashed big wigs like toilet paper in a matter of minutes. These guys don't understand what it means to be a NYorker. I pity the Clintons.

Please my man give a round of three
gbosas to his excellency, the prime the prime, the one and only Alpha Male, his Majesty D-o-n-a-l-d J Trump!!!!

3 sound gbosas to DT. The guy is the phenomenon of this election year. Plus he has this streek of winning against all odds. What with #NeverTrump and the pety Mitt Romney's #StopTrumpatallodds, he triumphed handsomely.
God has that man in plan for something big, mehn.

bigboss80s:
Of course but we all know he won't win the presidential election. What we do know, however, is what is going on in the depraved minds of the American white elite.

You are in for a rude shock for that is the next president of the US of A.

Marley01:
Nah, don't give up easily. Nigerians love drama, we are all actors and actresses without awards. Its just a matter of time, those holding us captive will all die!

But they empower their children and minions to take over after them ?

Knowledge9000:
Nnamdi Kanu looks fresh and well fed. Most **** don't look fresh like this even if you give a bed inside Shoprite. They will still look local and malnourished!

Yes, you are right. He looks well fed having been served with delicious amala and gbegiri soup. I trust the zoo prison chefs.
