Breaking News:

The Nigerian Police Force today invaded the camp of "unknown gunmen"in Ekwusigo Local Government Area of Anambra State and killed 41 Unknown Gunmen and arrested 2 persons and a female herbalist after a heavy gun battle.

Luck ran out of them after a tip off where security operatives trailed the assailants.

Although one security operative paid the ultimate supreme sacrifice.


When contacted the Anambra Police Commissioner said that he is terribly afraid and he also said as it stands in the coming weeks their might be a deadly reprisal attack from the UGM

He queried that if care is not taking he might be forced to move to Abuja till the tension is doused

Details later....

sarki is that you?

That is why I get so offended when I see a southern saying nonsense.

This is systematic. It is backed by almost all their leaders. You can see how they were crawling from the their holes to attack southern governors. If not that Buhari is the president, he would have reacted as well. The third man on the seat who happens to be from that region kicked.

The simple fact is that we have the essential resource that their survival depends on. Water. Immediately after Southern governors rejected RUGA (the original form), Lawan came out to say, there is need to amend the Land Use Act. Afterwards, they came up with the bill to cede all the water resources to the central government, if not for the vigilance of some few individuals. I know the idiots from the south that we have there not mind selling the south for some few coins and political ambition.

All these Hamas e-versions. Just come up with propaganda in addition to una terrorist financing. Awon werey.

We don't have investigative journalists in Nigeria.

The one that exposed Ganduje is running for his life. You think Nigeria is a country?

Hello Nairalanders,

I need your help in deciding which name to use for my business. I want to use my birth name as my official business name. The problem is that my real name is not too sexy.

Olorunloba Yusuf is my name, but I like to short it as Loba Yusuf. So my question is which one looks appealing to you in Olorunloba Yusuf or Loba Yusuf? I'm open to any nickname suggestions that sounds like my name

Hmm be careful about using your name as a company name. Especially if you planned to be appealing to wider audience and seperate your life from your business (which you will want to do as your business grows).

Meanwhile I suggest Asloba (because you seek or ask for opinion on this)

Jack005:
Joke of the decade ..The Dullard thinks Nigeria is an Islamic country.

The joke is on you and all those who refuses to see beyond their nose. Nigeria was unilaterally registered in IOC, Christian population in many parts of the country are being decimated, they are seeking another Moslim president in 2023 and you are there saying what you know. The joke is on you. Expect Buhari to say something in France!

I am appall that the most illiterate and the most backward people are the ones dictating the pace.

This looks like the north na.

I did ISS101 and ISS103 in school. The history of Islam is history of violence. It's all about Jihad and destroying infidels as they term it.


Until this evil religion is decimated and their core adherents wiped from the face of earth, the world will never know peace.

The foundation of it was on violence.

Middle Belt has been so quiet and used by the caliphate. They sre only needed during election. In OBJ's book, My Watch, some northerners came to meet him to tender their displeasure that the north is not happy that he gave ministerial positions to people that are not true northerner.

Unfortunately, you will see the Yawe of this world being the Spokesperson for Arewa group and vilifying the south. Despite the fact that the north used them as shooting practice.

All warfare is based on deception

Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable;
when using our forces, we must appear inactive;
when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away;
when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”

- Sun Tzu, Art of War

I have read this book more than 3x. I have the audio book. I keep listening and reading, because I don't want to only read but also be soaked in the knowledge of it so much that I will be able to apply the wisdom in it to my daily life.

The north depends on the south for survival!

vincentjk:
They wanted to put an end to the bad belle news the aljazeera group feed the public with

Aljazeera, the NTA of Nigeria

Very soon una buhari go send Nigerian military (southerners) to goan help fight Israel, mark my words.

Aljazeera is a terrible news outlet. I usually turn them off when it comes to anything Middle East. They as bias!

EdoDefence:
There is no chance that Ẹdo people will go with Yoruba, our First choice is an independent nation and second choice is Midwestern republic

Ok

Welcome idea.

Southern Nigeria must have a united front.

superjab247:
As a Muslim I am not happy about what isreal is doing to our brothers in Palestine.we the giant of Africa can't sit down and watch isreal attack our peaceful islamic brothers.

We must attack isreal. the Nigerian capable millitary, must conduct operations against isreal and defeat the Isrealis.Nigeria under the capable leadership of general Muhammadu Buhari must crush Nethanyahu and his tiny isreali forces.

Nigeria must declare war against isreal the enemies of islam, and Allah would give us a quick victory.

Let the battle begins

Lolzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

MilitaryAnalyst:
Another Civil War looming? Well let's take the time and carry out a probability of such outcome.

If Nigeria should suffer another civil war, a lot of things will undergo starting with even the smallest of tribes getting nationalistic, for example the Ogoni people with a population of over 2 million people in number have once fought for an independent nation as far back as the 1990s agitated for their own country.

This was a time not as hot as it is under Buhari's regime. Nigeria will see Tribes and ethnic groups all full of doubts for her neighbours and wanting nothing to do with its neighbour leading to more than 6 nations coming out of this country, funny as it may seem only people without sentiments will agree.

Nigeria's Northern territory under intense suffering through war might see itself balkanized in two nationalities, the Hausas-Fulanis to the west and the Kanuris to the east. With each side blaming the other for what has befallen their hegemony over the south.

The Ijaws have been known to be a very nationalistic tribe with some people calling them the Southern Fulanis, it won't be surprising to see them agitate to be left alone or for their neighbours to reject partnership with them to create a nation.

The Oduduwa people an already large tribe will large land will have to battle at their northern territory for Kwara.

The Edo people, a people known to have have their loyalty to their King and having tasted what African democracy is, won't be surprising if they opt for a return of Monarchical system of rule, they will have to work on uniting their brethrens scattered in Delta and other States who claim to have their origins from Benin.

The Nigerian government should not underestimate the type of warfare the ESN has started, a dialogue is better as this unconventional warfare is very effective against conventional Armies.

You have limited knowledge of the level of splinter that would occur. In the north for instance, we would have over three nations. Tsraba wouldn't go with Hausa -Fulani. Kanuri may seek their nation. But don't also forget thst Southern Borno refused Usman Dan Fodio with their blood and remained christian even in the darkest of times. Hence, even if they would go with troublesome Kanuri, they will seek special arrangements. Southern Kaduna would Probably go with middle Belt. Niger State would be split in half. There would be a major contention among Hausa-Fulani. Because already there is a serious schism among them. The new generation of Hausas are asking questions that the elders cannot provide answers to. There is high chance that Itekiri would go with Yoruba. Edo could also go with Yoruba, depending on the arrangement of the constitution.

In all, within the next 20 years, each country would be better off than being in the present arrangement.

This is for all those that love to say it is better to compare 1 dollar to 1 naira rather than 500 naira.

Comparing 1 dollar to 1 naira does not make economic sense, many currencies in the world does not have equal value to the dollar.

You can not compare 1 dollar and 1 naira, they are not of equal value.

You can't also compare 1 euro and 1 dollar, they are also not of equal value.

You can't also compare 1 pound to 1 dollar they are not of equal value.

To get equal value of 1 dollar to a given currency you convert, you find for the equivalent of 1 dollars in a given country currency and then compare.

For instance.

1 dollar is equal to 500 naira.
1 dollar is equal to 71 pence
1 dollar is equal to 82 euro cent.

Now, you compare, what will 500 naira get in Nigeria and what will 1 dollar get in the United states.

What will 71 pence get in the england vs what will 1 dollar get in America.

What will 82 euro cent get in the EU vs what will 1 dollar get in America.



That is how you compare.

Oga what exactly are you saying? Which kind ofurukpe economy be this?

Exchanging money (forex) is a business. And like Mercedes exchange to IVM, would make a scale collapse in one direction, it's shows the strength of one economy over another.

There was a time N1=$1.5. The graph has tilted since. N1 was meant to equal $1. ¥1 was meant to equal £1. But since most forex are under competitive market (unlike CBN that kept controlling forex) the law of demand and supply would determine the true strength overtime

Countries devalues their currencies because of economic weakness and to gain certain economic advantage. This discussion would be very long and educational if it was done f2f. But it's an error to say people should not compare N1 to $1.

Officialgarri:
I believe his version of the story. Looks accurate of what I thought in my head.

But trust our emotional social media CIA, they sold us many pathetic stories and made me to almost begin to sympathize with the murderer.
One unknown blog even said he had over 50 shallow graves in his yard.

Someone came for a job, you said no job and ask her for sex and she said yes? Without hefty sum?

Someone that said yes, now suddenly was fighting for her life to escape?

You are more stupid than the stupid murderer.

Who Else Has Noticed This?

I have noticed that it is very difficult to come across 10 Naira notes these days. Infact, I don't remember the last time I saw a 10 Naira note. I hope the 10 Naira note is not going the way of 5 Naira notes.

Who else has noticed this

I have N5 that can buy absolutely nothing.

cocolacec:
It is the same slogan for centuries,foreigners come to your land to say ”Your leaders are corrupt” lets get rid of then with a promise of a more fair and just system.
Tinubu comes to mind with Igbos always attacking him ceaselessly.

I am still trying to see how Tinubu entered this discussion. But since you brought him into it. There is no difference between those that supported Buhari in 2015 and those supporting Tinubu now. Nobody should expect anything from this Nigeria. It's a calamity going somewhere to happen.

PS: I don't doubt the fact that Tinubu is neck and shoulder above Buhari. But he is as corrupt as hell and he MUST dance to the gallery for those who are drumming support for him. Most of whom are f**king corrupt.

Na there problem be that. How Hausa betrayed their own people in support of a foreigner (Usman Dan Fodio) still baffles me till today.

Though a little different, it is synonymous with that Yoruba warlord that lead Fulani to attack Oshogbo that year. After the Fulanis were defeated, he was beheaded.

I think anyone (southerner) still asking for restructure at this time is living in a fool's paradise. We have passed that.

It's amazing how human beings could be so narrow-minded. There are over 50m Yorubas across the world. And at least 20m males. because you hv a sample size of 5 or 10 is jow enough to draw inference from 20m people?

Besides you don't sound so smart yourself. because if you are, you wouldn't come with a blank statement. Who do you think you are, Jesebella?

Exc2000:
They should be charged with terrorism and not just roberry

Their actions can lead to deaths of hundreds train passenger if trains derail

In a sane country yes. But of this govt charge southerner for terrorism, I go dey among those that would campaign against it. I will never go against any southerner in this country again. Let's sll be mad!

Our sophisticated evening demons of Nairaland chapter will avoid this thread.


98.97568% of Nigerian girls are sexually starved, both the married ones.

The brave ones among them are sometimes courageous enough to beg for the gbola while the ones with pride resort to rape or molestation.

Y do I feel the guy is lying though? Who wears short to work?

The time of restructuring is long gone!


When pple feel assumptions is better than reality, na d result be dt! Una go soon get sense!

Na una dey give all these swines mouth. Y una dey even consider to write abt such nonsense?

Restructure this country or divide it ......simple save live's please

We have move beyond restructure. They don't want restructure. So do we.
