Just coming back from X. Omojuwa won that one.

May our lives not be frozen in time like Frank Edoho's and may our claim to online fame not be because of savage replies.

Still, what exactly has Omojuwa done or achieved in his life?

OasisX:


.....perhaps you ain't a fan of him, but to be fair he has achieved a lot already.

semid4lyfe:

1. Yes, they can produce seeds. There are seedless and seed varieties of GMO crops. They are considered intellectual property and that is the only reason they don’t encourage farmers to replant them. It has not thing to do with biological reason(s) but more legal because the original inventor of the seed can sue you.

2. No they don’t become sterile to organic seeds. Research and peer reviewed articles have shown that you can plant organic seeds after GMO, however, you just have to wait a a year to avoid contamination between organic seeds and GMO seeds. The idea is to keep organic seeds in their “original” state as much as possible. Weed and other plant activities occur in a land that GMO seeds were cultivated and undergoing transition.

That's what makes him a great leader right? You are a joke.

liveLongNprospa:
Your believing in him stops you from taking initiative to criticize him for how he has handled security of lives?
Is that how you believe in him?
But you take initiative to attack Obi.

Interesting

Spy360:
Joke's on you. Tinubu is buying yansh with people's resources while Obi is donating to people. Joke's on you bro.

Stop disgracing your family legacy because of emilokan

I don't attack Obi, I expose all what you guys deliberately concealed. Was it not here during Enugu vs Anambra that Okpanskaisbae revealed that Obi didn't do anything tangible in Anambra? But because 'our brother must be the next President ', he was selling a dummy, hailing him to high heavens.

Nothing much happen for our side. We stayed neutral and our core village was only accessible by water however Okrika mainland where my father was was occupied by Biafra

One relative in the main village died by mortar fire despite the village raising white flag to both sides, that was it apart from a couple young men who went to fight with Biafra.

Mainland Okrika was where most of the action was. We were obviously under occupation by the Biafrans first before the Nigerians pushed them out. On approach to Okrika was when Isaac Adaka Boro was killed. My dad was with his uncle the King, often ferrying Garri back and forth in the dead of night by canoe to help avoid sapa. His uncle had maintained a neutrality, building good relationships with the Biafrans when they held he ground, then when Okrika was surrounded by Nigerian troops, he sent my dad with a message to them, telling them to leave, that all was lost and fighting would only cause civilian casualties.

They then faded way without much fight. When the Nigerians entered, his opps who believe Kingship should be with their villages then reported him to Nigeria as being a traitor to Nigeria and working with the Biafrans.

He simply explained that he worked with whichever army was holding the ground to protect his people. He was up for treason, but they ended up putting him in KiriKiri for a couple years (he claimed it was to save his life from his opps) before he came back to claim his throne.

My grandmother missed the war as she was posted to Naija consulate in UK while my grandad was somewhere in Cameroon trying to japa hence my pops was left with his uncle.

As for stolen properties, I don't know anyone involved in that on our side or anyone from my village side. Any seized properties would have been in Borokiri part of PH. However before the war, my fathers uncle had founded and built a school which is now Rivers State College of Arts and Science. He bought a bush land and built the school. When he sent everything to the former Eastern Region Government to name the road he developed, they named it after an Igbo man he had appointed to his school board. That is Mbonu street in present day D-Line. So these were some of the injustices the minorities faced in South-South that made them kick back at Igbo rule.

Even more odd are people who burnt bridges defending either side of the supposed divides.

If you've worked closely with a politicians at certain levels, you'd know not to fight for them at the risk of personal relationships or burning bridges.

I've seen two Governorship candidates call each other with me sitting with one while I was scrolling through Facebook timeline reading their most passionate followers cûrsing each other out. It changed my perspective about these things for life.

At the peace accord aftermeeting close to the election, they were all hugging and drinking wine privately yet radio stations were having political morning talkshows with experts analysing their fiery comments at each other.

There's nobody on this thread who can swear on everything sacred Obi and Tinubu haven't spoken this year.

Scratch that - there's nobody on this thread who can take a consequential oath (if you are religious) that Obi and Tinubu haven't spoken on the phone between last month and today.

Political parties are just SPVs. Defend your candidate/preferred politician with your brain logic intact.

liveLongNprospa:
Expose, attack, disposses etc..
Why don't you give the same energy to Tinubu?

airmark:
How many times will i answer this question before you stop asking?

liveLongNprospa:
Because you are not answering it.
Your first claim that you are not an APC supporter and the you have refused to admit you support tinubu.

Oya If you don't support Tinubu why you dey barely criticize am?
Coz you consistently comment on politics especially relating to apc and their attack on Obi.

Lmao how can you be afraid on nairaland? 🤣🤣

I’ve been offline and didn’t know anything about the spat between Omojuwa and Frank Edoho but this caught my attention .

I don’t think Frank’s live is frozen o; the guy is still making a decent and honest living off the camera and off social media savage replies .

I attended an evening event by a major company in the financial services early June at Lagos Oriental hotel and Frank Edoho was the compere . I don’t know how much they paid him but I’m sure he would’ve been paid his true and fair market value which certainly won’t be cheap .

TemporaryHansel:
One of the major problems in this era is the mindset that if you’re not flaunting a larger-than-life lifestyle on social media, then you must be struggling or failing at life.

I honestly don’t see any other reason why someone would make such a ridiculous comment about Frank Edoho.
