[size=18pt]I call on Anambra (and other Igbos) citizens living in Lagos not to vote for Tinubu/ACN in 2015. Place your thumbs where your security and freedom is assured - any party but ACN. Tyranny must not be rewarded. [/size]

PROUD-IGBO:
Don't know much about him, but Enyinaya Abaribe -on the surface- looks like a reasonable, educated and well-spoken brother.

This zoning crap should not even be discussed......Abias' situation is so critical that they have one foot in the grave already.

I agree. If Imo State had stuck with Zoning, perhaps some clueless clown like Orji would be at the helm of affairs now in the state.

Joey82: Does it matter who speaks for who?
what is important is that he (Akinjide) has opened another chapter to a rather diverted perception that Gowon was the culprit.
even though i'm surprised that Gowon never came up to clear the air which is suspicious (maybe he's forming elder statesman)
i think bakassi people deserve to know the truth about who is directly responsible for their present situation.

You somehow managing to say the same thing as I did.

Demdem: Oga, i think u are trying to change the goal post here. U earlier requested that Gowon himself should "boot on", now u demand they shoud shut up. which one should we admit now?

Oga I no get time for cyclic argument now. I dey work, abeg!

Demdem: Kasumu or so that speaks for IBB constantly is in which capacity officially? Pray to me first that this "slave" is not personally mandated to speak for Gowon. Besides he didnt say he is speaking on his behalf, he is just laying out the facts but left out the desired names. yes the facts i said because he represented this country at the ICJ during the trial. I believe all these documents will be at his disposal.

We can see the result of his representation of Nigeria - calamity!

Wouldn't he be deem wise, if he shut his mouth, and let the country sort out the mess people like him created!

Demdem: The same way Maku the silly one, okupe the dog and Abati the liar speaks for the master the Retardeen.

The ones you referenced are empowered officially, and are paid for what they do. Pray, on which authority does this retarded slave speak for Gowon?

Who say only their men are cattle phucker?

Gowon is alive, and very articulate to boot! Let him speak for him self. I don't understand the unbridled propensity for slaves to speak for their masters!

Abia has very huge potential, as such whoever is going to preside over affair post 2015 election should be judged on precedence and vision.
But then 2015 is three year away, surely we can squeeze juice out of the Orji.

Let's mount pressure on Orji, let's declare an open season on Abia State, with focus on clueless Orji!

It's time to dangle the sword of demagogue to save Bakassi! It's time to threaten Mr. President with impeachment. lol

Interesting...

I hope they keep up the pressure. The idea of referendum is cool. Who say democracy is not working...

Aigbofa: Well, at least I didn't enjoy the hospitality of ibo people and then threaten to burn down their cities.

Neither did they threaten you with progrom, shameless hypocrite. I wonder why most Yorubas are hypocrites!

I couldn't care less who a Lagosian is, but my point is this, any party that cannot guarantee freedom of movement (especially of none indigenes) in any state in Nigeria should be kicked out in the next election by those likely to be affected.

ACN/Tinubu policy is becoming a bundle of nuisance to hard-working people of Lagos state (not minding what has been stolen)

Dudu_Negro: ...can you imagine when the speed rail system is launched how many people will desert villagea in East to move to Lagos. Everytime some new program or infrastructue is put up they are drawn away from erosive land to land of milk and honey. Naaturally thats human way but it is inhuman to they way ibos cling and disparage the very goodies that attracted them in the first place.

I wonder what is delaying the rail line to Ibadan. You guys should speed it up. Lagos is becoming too congested, we need another SW City to consume. Ibadan, is our next target. I say this with the swagger of a true blood Igboman! Eat your heart out, silly man!

Dudu_Negro: I have news for you....you had better be voting and campaigning for ACN to win the elections. Anything less than a victory for ACN in Yorubaland will unleash the mother of all we ti e. That will be good time for you to go home on vacation until things calm down in West.

Any shut down of commercial and social activities, not to mention the anger against igbo, will adversely impact you far more than any other group of foreigners or imigrants in West.....so you have a vested interest in ACN victory if you value your milk and honey in Lagos.

lol. You live in fantasy land. Boko Haram are not finding it easy with the JTF, clown like you are threatening them with some local bushmen! I laff in wetie. In any case, anytime you are ready to for Lagos to go up in smoke, be sure you will getting willing participants. Bunch of spineless cowards!

Since ACN have shown their true colour, I wonder which none indigene will vote for such an ethnic party! Igbos will remember this day come 2015!

ndu_chucks: People like you should hide your heads in shame. You people were praising Ogun state for passing a law/rule which violated the right of free movement of Fulani herdsmen in violation of our constitution. You are now using the same constitutional provision to criticize Lagos. How shamelessly hypocritical can you get?

Sharrap, olodo.
We are talking about people here, and you are bringing up cattle. What kind of animal are you? Cow?

take dat: Mumu,if Lagos has no indigene you should please tell Nnamdi and Emeka to contest for Governorship elections in Lagos.For the mere fact that proper Lagosians and Yorubas in general are friendly doesnt mean each person should not bear his father's name.Ibo's beware and respect your boundaries so that you will not experience pogroms like you do in the north

Lol. Someone want Lagos state burn to the ground. Bring it on!

Let's look at it from another perspective, none-indigenes who do not want to be deported from Lagos State (or indeed any SW State) should know how to properly cast their vote in 2015. They may have to avoid ACN like a plague. I mean what kind of rascals do such thing?

buffny: who dey hold una.

we fit stop sellign u land

stop helping u to build house.

finito

And go hungry? lol.
Like you do it for free.

I just hope Anambra retaliates.

Buhari - witless
Tinubu - Shameless
Sanusi - Clueless

I doubt Nigeria deserve it in our current form. A restructured Nigeria, perhaps.

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan arrived New York, United States late Sunday night to participate in this year’s United Nations General Assembly summit and several other side events where issues relating to Nigeria will take centre stage.

For instance, the issue of endemic polio in Nigeria would be a main focus, bringing world leaders and prominent individuals, including Bill Gates, to see how Nigeria can be helped. Nigeria is one of the three countries in the world, where polio transmission has never stopped, according to the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF).

Also, one of Nigeria’s poverty alleviation schemes will be on display at the UN headquarters this week to showcase the success of the Federal Government in the acceleration of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to other countries.

ekt_bear: The best thing to do is to go to 6 regions and abolish the states contained within.

Or create more states in those regions without financial recourse to the center!

Let X be the highest number of states in any region.
X should be the total number of state in the SE Zone.

There I stand!

chosen04: You noticed that too?

Yes oo. That's what we see here daily . Adults peddling rumours and senseless propaganda.

Another beer palour gossip!

eaglechild: ALL major roads are not flooded(that will obviously mean a state of emergency being declared), though a good number do get affected(Okigwe rd etc).
However, woe betide u if u turn off those roads. If u dont live close to them, u'll literally need to swim thru to get there.
That is one of the reasons why housing is unnecessarily expensive in Owerri, because there are few places that afford a passable thoroughfare to get to those major roads.
Believe me even those on foot find it hard navigating thru those roads esp the laterite infested ones.

Are the roads in question normally flooded, or are they flooded as a result of construction activity?

Reading this, I sense Sanusi is out on his witch-hunt again. Did CBN (read Sanusi) consult with AMCON before coming up with his list? Otherwise why are companies and individual whose loans are performing doing in the barred list?

My sixth sense tell me, Sanusi moves was geared towards frustrating certain individual from participating in the power sector privatization. I think his motive is anything but altruistic.

eaglechild: Nwanne m, u seem to be the only one who shares my frustration here.
The earlier these imolites end this camaraderie they are keeping up with their government the better for them.
I will keep saying it now is the time to shout out for democracy dividends!
Ask the average Owerri resident his wish frm the govt, he will tell u he prays for the day he'll stop changing his SHOCKS 2x a month and stop SWIMMING to work in his car.
The govt is busy constructing monuments eg at control(Assumpta rnd abt) when there is a giant crater developing infront of that place.
Pls show us pics of Rochas achievements!

I get your point, but I doubt if the 'average' Owerri man has a car. If that is the case, they clearly do not represent the majority. Policies should target the majority, not the few.

I also doubt if owerri (the capital) is as flooded as you portray it, perhaps the hinterland. So would suggest that though, his educational policy is targeted at the average Imolite, I would however like to see decent road (with drainage)into the hinterlands, and of course moves to bring in more investments to the state. But I wouldn't agree to government building factories or running businesses by itself. Private business ownership is what should be encouraged.

Guys let's stop paying mind to chino, rick_ross, and okija_juju. People like them probably have other underlaying problems. They either need psychological help or prayer, or maybe both. Let's not fuel the passion. We are together in this boat, all of us!

And you have a gadget for gauging 'hate' in the thread? Mind pointing me where I can lay my hand on such gadget? Or you simply want to castigate the opinion of others as to sound 'balance' and full of wisdom?

Guy, the truth is that, whether military or civilian, leadership is leadership. The military regimes did not run only state or local government, let alone their families. The proposed to solve national problems, but instead promoted sectional agendas, and introduced myopic policies at national level. And we are not dwelling on who started coup, let alone the stupid!ty of the hausa/fulani dictators, you referred rather ignorantly as 'perfected.'

That the bulk of those clueless and corrupt military rulers are from the North is either co-incidental, or deliberate. They nonetheless represents leaders of from the North who ruined the country, and would continue likewise if given the chance.

In any case, these old rulers apart, how about the present crop of Northern leadership? Why are they not proposing solution to routine problems and challenges bedeviling their immediate society in the north? Disease, illiteracy, and massive poverty which can easily be resolved by a little more attention to formal education is within their power. Why are they not making progress in that regard?

Guy, this is tough love! Dismissing it as 'laced with hate', will not help the north, nor nigeria! That is is the simple truth!
