Yes I totally agree with him,let all those who are often quick yo refer to members of the NASS especially the Senate as corrupt thieves wait for 2019 n use their votes to chase out the crooks n vote in charge the saints n stop disturbing the air waves with baseless generalization, possibly those who feel they are good enough should put themselves forward n let's see difference period!!.

Badonasty:
Spain which is an advanced country no wan allow Catalonia exist and una dey expect make Biafra be....keep dreaming ooo

I'm not Igbo,neither do I support violence, but I know that most countries came about through arm struggles,those struggles themselves were as a result of injustice n inequality, so what am I saying, having one united country is certainly good so let's be fair to each other.In Nigeria today whatever issue or idea that comes up the core Muslim north would insists that things must be done their way,look at the issue of restructuring for instance, so with this kind of set up how can there be a truly united peaceful n progressive country devoid of agitations?.

This Spanish tax issues, are they for foreigners only?.haba wai!!

If u ask Adesina his views about this interview he would tell you Akinjide is been sponsored by the opposition to destabilize saint buhari. Ask liar moh'd n he will tell Akinjide is an enemy of state n guilty of hate speech for crossing a red line. so Akinjide as far as APC is concern you are O.Y.O.

kalu was making sense till he exonerated buhari of every fault,if you want to say the truth then say the whole truth no matter what,you mean operation python dance,the terrorist tagging n proscription of ipob all happened without buhari's knowledge?, then buhari is not truly in charge of the country. The government could have easily used the court to tactically nailed kanu.kalu knew of kanu's whereabouts but his informants couldn't tell him the whereabouts of his father?,it's really a shame,because of ego, selfishness n greed the Igbo's are their own greatest problem.

let's stop this rubbish of threat n reference to the civil war,the world witness two world wars but has not ceased to exist. It's good for the country to be one but let's do the right things to keep it truly one for all citizens. must oil sell above $100 before buhari/APC perform?,by the way didn't buhari promised to stabilize oil price?so what's stopping him n y is incessant complaints, fuel subsidies has been removed!!, the refineries are working at 50%,y is the price of fuel locally not down?,right now this APC government is making plenty extra budgetary revenue from the increase in oil price above budget benchmark, they claimed to have recovered trillions abi billions from treasury looters,increase government revenue courtesy of TSA,yet it's all complaints every day,brandishing fake n imaginary achievement for public deception.The simple technique of APC as I see it is, make so much noise,pass the blame,keep the public busy n blind to all your wuruwuru n the game continues.

Immediately I read of increase tariff, I knew that was the real koko of the matter,abi is it rocket sciences?.

Achievement no. 58:prompt payment of salaries n gratuities with independence celebratory bonuses in advance.

whaaat!!,DSS this man is an enemy of the state ,infact he is a terrorist,when we know that Nigeria would have folded up if not for buhari who came n has transformed Nigeria into Paradise n this man is talking rubbish, his statement is tantamount to hate speech n he should be arrested n lock up ASAP.

Awoofawo:
Did you read my reply to your other post?! We in the South west have been advocating for restructuring , so all regions can develop at their own pace without hindrance from other regions. Canada is multi-culture nation with French and English adopted in difference provinces that made up the country and they are doing fine. The ideas of retaining slave-master language all over Africa is so that the west may continue to indirect control the continent. We can not attain any meaningful and sustainable development if we continue to ignore our culture particularly our languages. Your first post which I quoted didn't do justice to the idea you tried to convey.......but I later got your point from your second post ( a reply to someone else actually ).......

Alright noted tanx

Awoofawo:
Look at this mumu.........Japan, India, Even China that were once under British rule.....which one of the jettison their culture and languages the way will do in Africa. Continue uses of Slave-master language is indirect continua of Slavery.......those countries I mentioned would never have attained their social and economy development, if they are like us! Abeg oga goansido!

I'm not surprised on your use of language, it has become the norm on nairaland unfortunately, but ask yourself those countries you mentioned are they multi lingual n multi cultural like ours?,if the south west were to be a country today studying in Yoruba would have been perfect, pls endeavor to think n do some analysis before launching a tirade of insults.

zoedew:
I respectfully disagree. First, it is good sense to blend where you live else you become like fish out of water. Second, the language you suggest not having a background in history, culture and tradition is bound to be counter productive with the resultant loss of cultural identity. Take time to look at Afrikaans language in SA. Third, it would lead to people groups scrambling to have their language dominant in the language you suggest because language is about influence. The French forever wish the English language were not this dominant globally. Take it or leave it Britain is this relevant globally because English language is spoken worldwide even by those who pretend not to understand it! Fourth, it should enhance Federalism and political enlightenment and contribute to the reduction of corruption to its barest minimum considering that all politics is local!

tanx for your observation n contribution, but I'm not suggesting we form a brand new language but simply to make writing some English words conform with our environment for easy understanding n advancement, we can continue using those wording e.g put,sell,bag etc that go in line with our local pronunciations. one good thing is that almost all African dialects follows the same pattern such that anyone who can read Yoruba can read Swahili or Zulu fairly well without learning or understanding them,this means a Yoruba reader can easily learn SEnglishall that would be require is translation n interpretation. This idea came up because I have been trying for long to help my kids master reading English apart from their school studies with very slow success but when I tested teaching them how to read my dialect,I notice they found it easier,I have observe this in many children, learning English as it is takes a very long time of practice n cramming, you would be amazed how some secondary students pronounced some English words but I don't blame them,for instance letter "C' in English can " k" as in carton,or "S" as in certain, cell or "CH" as in chance,change. this is also the case with letter G,you don't find these complications in our dialects where alphabetical sounds remain same even in words so that reading simply becomes a smooth combination of the alphabetical sounds to form a word.infact I have been searching for the technique of teaching kid how to read n write English perhaps you know of one because looking back I remember vividly the trouble we passed through to develop the ability to read n write English but it wasn't the case with Hausa.

I hope this is not voodoo economics, where is the effect of all these on the ground?, just cooking up stories to present false achievements n deceive the populace.

ordinarily this would have been a great idea but on a second thought how would the country look like if this is replicated in every state, rather I will suggest that we should develop our own brand of written English based on our local alphabets pronunciations to make learning easier n faster like the Americans e.g we should spell come as "kom", cotton as "kotin",certain as " satin",etc,the English alphabetical sounds individually n when use in words makes the British English complicated n difficult to learn n teach to children unlike our local dialects. I learnt Hausa in primary school in the north within a year I could read n write it fairly based on that knowledge now I can read most Nigerian languages not perfectly but good enough for the speakers of the languages hearing me to understand which I feel is good enough, let's keep sentiments n pride away n do what will aid our rapid advancement for common good.

oh boy,this lady fit break person blokos!!,this yoga of an exercise na waoh!.

All this cheating cheating complaints every self,wetin the lost wet una de call am cheating, abi the Toto or blokos de complain wet una no go let person hear word as una de form righteous so.NA everyday NA im something go de taste one thing, abegi change is necessary as it is the spice of life.

since the arewa youths are now the defenders of democracy n rule of law, let them also give ultimatum to khalifa buhari to obey the courts n release Dasuki on bail so as to continue his trial in open court or set him free altogether for lack of credible evidence, except if their own definition of injustice is parochial,then they would taken serious. As it is now theirs is just a simple case of an attack dog turning against it master.

The way the pelemo keep mouth for the pix looks like he would sure like to lick n suck somethings,but the woman has got a real task to prove her case,good luck to her.

useless sycophant of a presidential toilet washer desperately trying to impress her demigod.

Explorers:
A man was found dead with a cassette recorder in one hand and a gun in the other.

When the police came in, they immediately pressed the play button on the casse.tte.

He said “I have nothing else to live for.

I can’t go on,” then the sound of a gunshot.

After listening to the cassette tape, the police knew that it was not a suicide.

How did they know?

They knew because it was not possible for the man to have shot himself n stop the recorder n be holding it.

The only thing this buhari's APC government is good at is lies,deceit n propaganda, only the gullible thinks otherwise n keep singing their praises for all the claimed imaginary achievements, the kind of cankerworms that would be revealed if this APC government is done away with would certainly be mind boggling n unbelievable.

This sagay of a man is a complete idiot,but I blame buhari for failing to call him to order making him feel indispensable,has buhari actually got the stern quality his supporters shout about?.

I think a fair solution to this neymar/cavani issue is to allow cavani take the penalties, neymar takes free kicks except when either of them choose to delegate the responsibility to another or any other person.

To those who are so quick to join obasanjo to accuse Atiku of corruption,he has challenge anyone with evidence of corruption against him to show it shove it up his/her ass n keep quiet.Atiku by exposure, political experience n human relationship is by far better than any politician in the the north today, he is from NE n justice demand that the Next president of northern origin should be from NE,his only problem is his not a fundamentalist n bigoted. he has a better grasp of nigeria's complexity n the mental composure to effectively deal with them,he would sure have my vote if he becomes a candidate.

Does it mean that when the federal government apply to the high court for the proscription of an organization deem to be of terrorist nature such ruling can't be appealed?, secondly now that IPOB is banned what is the basis of continuing with kanu's trial based on the old charges?, I will like to be educated but I feel the federal government should have at least fulfilled all righteousness by allowing the court to find KANU guilty of violating his bail conditions n ordered for his arrest before going after him,now as it is I doubt much if we have seen the end of this issue.

Was it not this same Efcc that claimed it had a working relationship with the British NCA who were investigating diezani?,how come they couldn't get the NCA to assist them to interview the ex-minister in London of all places!!, certainly it's much easier to conduct trials on the papers of newspaper n achieve predetermined results, efcc only good at celebrating imaginary concocted victories of fake media trials.

The APC is seriously scared of PDP's shadow hence they can't do anything without mentioning PDP,but had as they try it's becoming clearer that despite all her shortcomings PDP was n is much better to APC,APC can keep fooling themselves the days of reckoning will surely come.

APC sponsored rubbish, the governor hasn't got a name?,OK perhaps he in the good books just using him for public deception, $2.1b arms fund no de finish?,how much in total was actually allocated to the office of the NSA for the three years dasuki was in charge?,how much was for arms n other matters?,what is the process of military arms procurement in Nigeria?, who were involved in these processes?.why is the government not even taking dasuki to court for open trial?, we need answers not empty noise.the chief of defense staff went to U.S early this year to claimed that Nigeria spent $2.4b in the NE in 2016 alone! after this buhari's ApC government announced that it had defeated BH yet nobody is asking how,the APC should service their propaganda vehicle very because the smooth road it traveled on in 2015 is now very deplorable n it's likely to break down if it attempt the same journey in 2019.

Always conjuring up excuses to exonerate saint buhari n blame others,buhari's juju must be very potent oh!.

Even with this extra budgetary revenue from oil ApC will still give you a million reasons y they can not perform based on their own budget!,by the way when is buhari going to stabilize the International oil price as he promised during the campaigns now that they are jubilating over this little increase.

Everyday Jamb wahala,me my suggestion is this, to solve the admission problem let the following be done:convert all polytechnics to colleges,then upgrade all colleges to first degree only awarding status while the universities maintain their status quo, change NUC to NUCC(national university n colleges commission),divide the country into groups consisting of a state from each geopolitical zone to make a group e.g Lagos,ebonyi,bayelsa,Benue,gombe,kebbi.let students from states in the same group apply directly to any college or university in their group using their O'level n pass the entrance exam to continue.let all certificate above school cert n below first degree be of two or three years duration n call diplomas n schools awarding such be known as HIGH schools.let PGD to be awarded by universities only n of one year intensive academic exercise only without project but practicals where necessary like in education.I believe this will help a lot in solving the perennial admission problems in Nigeria.
