9gerian: Thank you. ...IMHO, I think he should refrain from the media war, which would only pitch his tribesmen against gtb as we saw in the recent past, and create more backlashes in ways unimaginable. That is a dangerous dimension being introduced in Nigeria, and it is another low (like others being confronted in some troubled regions) for people to be made to take sides based on tribal sentiments; subtle as they are.
I'm sure innoson has employees from various tribes just as gtb. It is a disservice to all those employees, if they are forced to bear the brunt of actions of a few businessmen. For instance, some hardworking gtb marketers (Igbos inclusive) would have lost some good accounts just because of these 2 elephants, hence their source of livelihood threatened. Also, there may have been corresponding counter-actions in some quarters too. Not fair IMO!
Let the businessmen trash their cases in court, including their rights and other perceived grievances of collusion by judges, efcc alike. Cheers! Well said. |

positivethought: Well it's OK, Mr innoson has been very clear about thrashing his issue with GTB in court but you know spectators will always display sentiments in every contest, I'm from the middle belt but most times I just feel embarrassed by the unending media war amongst the southerners,its what is making far north to take everyone for fools in this country today. But who is waging a media war in this case? As someone noted, the prosecutor is an Igbo man working under a Northern boss. The GTB witnesses are Igbos. How the hell did tribal sentiments come in? |

Yes, you're right with tribalistic experiences. It's almost everywhere. However, I believe that is not enough reason to make me become one.

Dareal90s: You got a good tight points, a but the fact still remain, they ar d most tribalistic and when we measure things to knw d best region Yoruba's has proven to b d best and they will never brag even in terms of development nd exposure, but bad mouth against other tribes from d Igbo's is too much as if they ar better. I know the Yorubas just as well as (even better than) I know the Igbos. One way or the other, they more rapidly adopted Western civilization (the need of the British for the port of Lagos may have given them little choice in the matter). The tapestry of their culture has historically been richer. But Their "sophistication" means that there are certain things that are beneath them. Unfortunately, in too many cases, hard work is one of those things. Are they the "best" as you claim? I don't know o. I wouldn't be so quick to go there. The Yorubas need to wake up. They are living largely on past glories. The Igbos have caught up academically (at least, are catching up), and Anambra in particular seems to be producing brilliant students. Rather than acknowledging the hard work of the Igbo, the typical uneducated Yoruba would rather cite the fact that so many Igbos are into crime. This silly holier than thou attitude acts as a defensive mechanism as Igbos buy more and more parts of town. |

Dareal90s: There's no lie, check Alaba market, all piracy materials are done by Igbo's, prostutution, 419 etc, they r d ones perpetrating it, check Igbo man shop for Lagos u will never see an original product in his shop These are the facts the way I see them. It is generally a bad idea to generalize (see what I did there...) but the truth is, doing so once in a while can be very instructive. Igbos, as a rule, tend to be more enterprising than other tribes in Nigeria. Dare I say, their culture makes them more egalitarian in outlook, and makes their communities less constrained by power-distance problems. Passing through the crucible of the Civil War also helped in two ways: their will to survive and thrive has become even stronger, and those who fled abroad back then created footholds for the tribe in far-flung parts of the developed world. So, this is no tribe to mess with. Unfortunately, (if you've taken my praise, do bear with the generalization that follows): 1. Those same strengths above, when focused on vices, can also make Igbos who pursue that path (as folks in all tribe do) good at being bad (to put it nicely). 2. No one tribe can be accused of being more tribalistic, but in my experience, more Igbos play the card when things don't go to plan. Please carefully go through the bigoted comments on Nairaland, and see which side gets more likes. I did for a while. Perhaps, it's the Civil War. Truth is though, there have always been signs of it. I won't make this a history lesson, but a solid case can be made for the role of *Igbo* tribalism in igniting the Civil War. The Igbos have it in them to excel and dominate. That they have what you perceive to be so many criminal elements is because while a Yoruba man would rather be decent and beg or grovel, an Igbo man would generally do whatever it takes to succeed. Is this good or bad? You be the judge of that. But what do we take from all this? We can learn to accommodate the excesses of others more, because they are often rooted in the same fibers from which their strengths spring. Our tribes are different, and distinct. we can use our differences as a justification to wedge us apart, or we can do the more sensible thing: acknowledge our differences, but still respect ourselves. Believe me, there is a lot to respect on both sides. If we ever do get to a point where we can recognize and harness our strengths, we will be a force globally. This is one area where I think OBJ did well. Think about how much power he gave Igbos in his government and how he used them; this, in my opinion, is one Nigerian who gets the concept of playing to the strengths of the tribes. |

For your information, my department has a very large contingent of Anambra students, and not once ever has their tribe bbeen brought up.

NATIONALPASTOR: Yorubas will regret what they are doing to INNOSON. Their anger is simply because he did not build that manufacturing plant in Lagos. How many investments does the Yorubas have in nnewi, Enugu or elsewhere in Igboland? As always, it's not the fact that an Igbo man passed a tribalistic comment that worries me. It's the large number of likes and shares. Does this truly represent how nd'Igbo think? I need saner Igbos to answer. If you must view things from the POV of tribe, can you idiots not see that a bank with largely Yoruba ownership gave him a chance when "Igbo banks" turned their backs? Abi EFCC chairman has become a Yoruba man? This has nothing to do with tribe. My belief is that it is simply a business partnership gone sour.

I mean, what sort of decent guy does that? If you think she's pigging out and you know you don't intend to (or can't!) pay, call her to order. That he asked her to pay at all ("testing" her, abi?) is a fail. What sort of big boy asks a girl to pay because he doesn't have N11k on him for a date? Of course, the girl also failed on an epic scale, but I'm hard on the guy because he's the one who came online to crow about what amounts to shameful behavior. Abeg make I pass joo.

if that is your definition of alpha male then they're probably extint or few because magas are now wise. I can guess the age and marital status of most posters from their posts. By whatever definition, a real man doesn't start what he can't finish. You don't take a girl to an eatery you can barely afford. And when you're there, and she's pigging up and ordering things, a real man will gently give her a hint what's up. What looks like a maga-defining expense for you (N11,000) is chicken change to some. Are you telling me that my paying N11,000 for a woman's meal makes me a maga? Not unless that is a substantial percentage of my monthly income!

I used alpha in the general sense: prime or dominant. "Alpha-male" means something different: an alpha among males. To make my usage clear, notice I said "alpha in the relationship". I also said being a gentleman is a choice. Many younger people mix being a gentleman up with being a mugu, maga or bobo nice. Matured minds know the difference. |

You can't even restrain the excesses of a poor girl you're hanging out with and you want to be claiming alpha.
By the way, who alpha epp? I no know who alpha epp. All I know is, your woman will give you the level of respect you EARN. Deserting a woman because she pig's out is immature behavior. That's what some of the boys today do, but that's not what gentlemen do. A gentleman may decide not to take her out next time, but he'll pay the bills for a date he initiates. If he doesn't have enough cash, he will be frank about it. I'm telling you how gentlemen act. It's your choice whether to be a gentleman or not.

Guys no longer know when to hide their faces in shame.
If you want to be the alpha in a relationship (most guys do), act it. If you take someone out on a date, pay the bills. Your date should be decent enough not to pig out, but if she does, make a mental note, and don't take her out next time. In any case, act the alpha. Alpha men are gentlemen. If you're okay haggling over bills with a woman, then you really aren't an alpha. Don't come sobbing if she disrespects you.
Don't take a date to an expensive eatery and hope she will restrain herself. Don't hide broke-azz status behind fake indignation. Don't give gentlemen a bad name, and for the love of God, if you do all the above, don't crow about it online!!! |

The point is not how appropriate this post is but the extent to which a human being can frustrate his colleague. Since Nigeria is a seemingly savage place sometimes you need that measure. Let's help the helpless and stop folding our hands doing nothing!
Since I won't walk past seeing this level of injustice...... NB He's not my Dr Oyadare #say no to victimization!!!!! I'm going to be frank with you. I have heard a little about what I assume to be the origin of this case. If it turns out to be the same case, then the good doc is being disingenuous. The story I heard (about wrongful application of the lecture attendance requirement for admittance for examination) left me with the impression that your doc chose to dig in and fight the HOD, rather than recognize the error on his part. If they are the same case, then everything your doc narrates in his letter can be seen as (a) punitive measures arising from the initial issue and refusal to back down (b) an attempt by the doc to throw colleagues under the bus. Notwithstanding the fact that some of his allegations would amount to serious misconduct on the part of the staff concerned, I'm not sure his colleagues would much like someone who prefers to throw them under the bus, rather than face the consequences of his own actions (misery loves company, eh?). It is possible that Dr. Layeni has been high-handed in handling this matter, but there is a strong whiff of self-righteousness and insubordination from Dr. Oyadare. The HOD is a powerful position (although wise heads don't wield that power rashly) and insubordination will only bring out the worst in certain types of individuals. Some of what he narrated could be termed victimization, but there is no doubt in my mind that this is all self-inflicted - again, assuming the origin of this tale is the same one I heard. Best of luck to you (and to him). |

P. Layeni) of the Department of Mathematics Permit me to use this medium to intimate you about the happenings in the Department of Mathematics, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, through this introduction and the attached letters to this mail, and the need to address the ugly trends through an Independent Enquiry. I am writing you on this matter having patiently waited for almost a year (during which I silently endured victimizations and intimidations from various quarters in the Department of Mathematics) for an Independent Ad hoc Investigative Committee to look into the matters raised in all my letters on the happenings in the Department. It should be put on record that the Department of Mathematics had earlier set up an Ad hoc Committee (to investigate my conducts as the Lecturer-in-charge of MTH 301 during 2016/2017 Harmattan Semester) but the Ad hoc Committee (in her infinite wisdom) did not invite me to any of her meetings (if there was any meeting at all) nor asked me to confirm (or even deny) any written and verbal statements on the matters being investigated. All the same a report (submitted and adopted by the powers that be in the Department of Mathematics) was said to have been written on me under the supervisory guidance of the Acting HoD, Dr. O. P. Layeni, while the same Committee was later asked to go ahead (by the Acting HoD, Dr. O. P. Layeni) to investigate allegations leveled (by me) against the Acting HoD and some of the Committee’s own members. That was how an Acting HoD and some Academic Staff (Members of the Department of Mathematics) became the judge and jury (respectively) in their own cases? This is what we were expected to accept in the Department of Mathematics as Justice and Fairness. Such were their frantic moves made to discredit my claims (which they already know are supported with hardcopy-proofs (See Other Attached Letters)) and to sweep away the memory of un-academic activities of some Academic Staff (Members of the Department of Mathematics) bothering on; (a) Non-attendance of classes for a whole semester (until the last three (3) days of the last week of Lectures) by Dr. G. Akinbo (in MTH 405); (b) Non-teaching and non-examination of Course Outline by Mr. K. A. Olurode (in MTH 318); (c) Teaching and Administering of Test during Lecture-free Week by Dr. G. Akinbo (in MTH 405) and Dr. O. O. Fabelurin; (d) Non-availabilty of the Lecturer-in-charge at Examination Hall for her Examination without any permission by Mrs. S. O. Ezeah (in STT 201); (e) Shifting the venue of an Examination without recourse to the Director of Academic Affairs (leading to a registered student for the Course missing the Examination) by Dr. O. P. Layeni (in STT 201); (f) Non-reportage of the non-availabilty of Lecturer-in-charge at Examination Hall to the appropriate authority by Dr. O. P. Layeni (in STT 201); (g) Setting a correct question but with a wrong answer and not being able to supply a correct answer during and after the Large Service Course Coordination by Dr. O. P. Layeni (in MTH 201, coordinated by Dr. T. G. Jaiyeola); (h) Marking of MTH 201 students’ scripts using a solution of a question that was either wrong or has not been verified to be correct by members of the Coordination Team till date (by Dr. T. G. Jaiyeola (as the Coordinator of the Course) and Dr. O. P. Layeni (as the Lecturer with the wrong solution)) (i) Requesting Student to Submit Medical Reports after Missing 60 % of Course Instructions in MTH 405 by Dr. O. P. Layeni and Dr. G. Akinbo; (j) Hiding of information on his directive and endorsement of my activities and consequent victimization on the Usage of University Regulations Concerning 75 % Minimum Class Attendance in the Course Instructions of MTH 301 During 2016/2017 Harmattan Semester by Dr. O. P. Layeni; As a way of fighting back at me (for my insistence on employing the University Regulations on the Conduct of Examinations and in highlighting the above strange and un-academic activities of these Academic Staff members who were duly reported to him), the Acting HoD, Dr. O. P. Layeni, and these Academic Staff members (i)removed me as the Coordinator of a 300-Level Course (MTH 318) during the just concluded 2016/2017 Rain Semester, giving no reason whatsoever for it; (ii) queried me (not less than twenty times in two months of the just concluded 2016/2017 Rain Semester) on any frivolous matter from anybody (even if the person obviously went out of his way); (iii) turned the monthly Department of Mathematics Board of Examiners’ Meeting to a venue for discussing what strategy they wanted to employ to “silence Dr. O. O. Oyadare,” in order not to allow the contents of my letters to see the light of the day; (iv)forcefully withdrew MTH 405 students’ scripts from me and handed them to a co-Lecturer who did not attend to his own half of the Course (until the last three days of the 2016/2017 Rain Semester Lecture Period when the students were rushed through a photocopied handwritten Lecture Note by this co-Lecturer and his Test for the Course conducted during the University Approved Lecture-Free Week); (v) degraded me to taking only Tutorials of Year-One Courses (as from the beginning of the present 2017/2018 Academic Session) in order to reduce my access to their activities; (vi)refused to allocate Undergraduate students to me for Project Supervision (as from the beginning of the present 2017/2018 Academic Session); (vii)refused to allocate any Postgraduate course to me to teach or any Postgraduate student to supervise (in a period of more than two (2) Years of being a Lecturer I in the University and more than two (2) Years after the completion of my Ph. D in the fields of Harmonic Analysis, Representation Theory and Geometry). I may not be surprised if I am eventually asked to vacate my present office-space for an “appropriate Tutor’s corner” among the Department’s Postgraduate students. The latest story being peddled around (after the permutation of a list of stories compiled for that purpose) is that “Dr. O. O. Oyadare’s mental health needs to be ascertained.” I am very happy to tell you that I am willing to again submit the hardcopy-proofs of all my claims as listed from (a) to (j) above (and as explained in the other attached letters to this mail) to the Faculty of Science Board of Studies and ready to submit myself for any medical evaluation by the University Authority. I am simply and humbly asking for a Faculty of Science Ad hoc Investigative Committee, (which I believe should consist, but not limited to, all Professors in the Department of Mathematics, for their expert contributions on the technical aspects of my submissions), having had nothing to hide in my conducts, in order for this independent committee to take an unbiased look into the matters raised in my letters, all of which are now attached to this mail for your personal perusal and afford the Faculty of Science to make an informed decision on the matter. I am very confident of the integrity of members of the Faculty of Science Board of Studies and that my call will be heeded, as the Faculty of Science had earlier in 2015 rescued my promotion to Lecturer I from being turned down due to the Department of Mathematics’ 2014 unilateral decision (under the Acting Headship of Dr. K. A. Olapade) to strike my job-entry publications out of my CV (thus denying me a well-deserved promotion in 2014) and the Department of Mathematics’ 2015 subsequent clandestine submission to the Faculty of Science that I came into the job (of a Lecturer II) with just one (1) job-entry publication, until the then Dean of Faculty of Science (after an Independent Enquiry into the matter) discovered the plot and asked the Department of Mathematics to formally apologise for deceiving the Faculty Review Panel in my case. The records of their failed attempts at blackmailing my personality are intact and may easily be checked in the Faculty Office. Thank you. Yours sincerely, Olufemi O. OYADARE
PS: This was written by one of the lecturers. It should not be swept under the carpet. What is happening in Obafemi Awolowo University? On investigation, I also hear many of the lecturers/staffs in that same department of mathematics have been victimized, denied sick leave, one even resigned. Many promotions have been pegged, leaves denied. #SAY NO TO VICTIMIZATION. EDUCATION IS NOT POLITICS BUT WHAT IT IS! How is it appropriate to put this online, and how does this help the case of your Dr. Oyadare? |

Revolva: if dis is not funny DAT means ur problem plenty o Sorry, it means that *your* problems are neck breaking. Normal people filter what they consider funny through the lens of decency (would you consider it funny if a flying sheet sliced off your parent's head and it bounced like a ball? Nope, I thought not). But people with problems like you, they need a break from reality, and take whatever "fun" life throws at them. My two cents. |
