I want to thank Southeasterners who defied the false propaganda that the place is unsafe, and returned in their droves to celebrate the Xmas and New year festivities. 2024 has opened up with a new wave of insecurity, kidnappings, assassinations, herdsmen attacks and terrorism. We pray for those affected and hope that government can do something to address these insecurity challenges

However, as we can see from the reports coming in, the South East the least affected by the insecurity. With the exception of Imo State, other States in the South Eastvare largely peaceful

As much as i agree with you, i think this post is ill-advised as it may make those instigating and engineering attacks in the south-east to restart their evil activities in the region!

If my memory serves me right, the south-east was ranked the safest region in the last two national security reports, and there are some who will not like this as it defeats their aim of trying to engineer a climate of fear and insecurity in the region in order to blame IPOB and Mazi Kanu, and so they can gloat and say ‘Igbo are killing Igbo because they want Biafra’!

Beautifulday:
Religious war between who and who?

Don’t mind the guy! Probably that’s what he and his hegemonic ilk had in mind…..ie, to incite a religious war if, like-play-like-play, all their manipulations and rigging couldn’t prevent Peter Obi (the actual winner) from being declared winner!

VaselineCrew:


See the way you guys supported the worst for your country with a full chest.

Saying people will suffer for 4 years, wail for so so years

Men, some of you Nigerians are special, I just don't get it.

You'd know someone would be a bad leader, but will still go ahead and bring him in to pepper someone else, like wtf?

Hehehehehe

I find that cross-legged sitting posture quite uncomfortable and i don’t know why or how any guy with the usual tools between his legs can sit that way and still be comfortable!

You’d need Whoppi Goldbergs’ character in GHOSTS for that one!

I’ve just seen it’s the impostor ekpa dolt that is purportedly organising this ‘online referendum’! Was going to vote in favour of secession until i saw his name! I don’t trust that bastard any further than i can throw him!

Chivisee:
Let's be clear about this,is it pitiobi that's spearheading this?? Because we already warned you that after your packaged fraud failed and your failed Lagos captured the next thing is Nzogbu Nzobue?? You remember operation crocodiles tears??

You play a obvious game of diversion and pretence!

Why would anyone think Peter Obi (i take it that’s who you’re referring to in your post) would be the one organising this referendum!? Not a few people (yours truly inclusive) see as naive and too trusting, any Igbo who thinks they can become president of todays Nigeria through a free and fair electoral process in which the will of the people will be the major consideration in determining who wins! Peter Obi, though a good and honest man, is a naive Igbo ‘one Nigerianist’! I supported him to emerge president more in hope than expectation!

The people in support of secession and this referendum are those of us who are pragmatists and realists, and have woken up to smell the coffee! For as long as there are power-hungry, bigoted, greedy and insecure hegemonic elite in Nigeria, for so long shall Nigeria continue to stumble in the dark, maintain a fractious relationship amongst its constituent parts, and continue to plot against any Igbo becoming president….like we saw in the last charade that passed for a presidential election!

My uncle was a Prof at UNN up until the early 90s, and lived at Margaret Cartwright street…..close to the VCs residence. I remember our first family visit there and how well he lived…with two cars, nice parlour and a fridge and lader filled with good food and drinks!

Nigeria has happened to the once mighty UNN, as it’s happened to just about everything else in the country….that is, with the exception of the bank balance of the thieving politicians and their acolytes!

It’s hilarious seeing both sides of the argument not wanting to backdown or give in to the other sides bullying! They’re polar opposites apart and as soon as one side delivers a punch, the other quickly responds with equal venom!

At one end of the divide, you have the Soludo is the best thing since the invention of sliced bread brigade….and at the other end of the spectrum, you have the Soludo is annoyingly slow and his projects annoyingly local crew! I think there’s merit in both sides of the argument, but i’m still prepared to give the governor an extra year before giving verdict! For now, the jury is still out on this!

christejames:
I'm glad the hotel project is within the precinct of the AICC...



Lovely idea Soludo.

But the ENTIRE area first has to be cleaned up, modernised and made to look upmarket and highbrow so the hotel can attract high-networth clientele and also be in the running to attract international conferences and meetings!

BluntCrazeMan:


It is really a biigg pity that NONE OF THE FRAUDSTERS from the INEC gets punished after such fraud had been established and exposed at the courts.

The worst of it all is that, at the courts, once the politicians which they want to favour wins the case, they would just sweep all the exposed fraud under the carpet.

I'm not surprised! I've always said Nigeria is one big crime scene.....a gangsters paradise (apologies to Coolio)! How does anyone expect the rule of law and justice to ptevail when the likes of Tinubu and Uzodinma are benefitting from the criminality!?

I've long since given up on Nigeria, but the one of Imo state really makes my blood boil, seeing how a shameless thug and crook has seized governance in the state!

Knowing the kind of evil they’re up against, i believe him!

I think Mazi Kanu and IPOB underestimated the level of desperation of the hegemonic north, their southern allies/lackeys, and their foot-soldiers (some of whom are actual soldiers as it turns out) to sink to any depths necessary to sustain the continued tortured existence of their ATM that is Nigeria! It was partly down to Mazi Kanu letting down his guard that allowed them trick him into travelling to a African country: his first mistake was thinking it was safe to travel to any country run by blackass Africans or Arabs!

It doesn’t really come as a surprise that the oppressive Nigerian state -that claims to have a iron-clad case against Mazi Kanu- has been using their control of the Nigerian judiciary to stall proceedings, just so they can continue to hold on to him illegally without having to answer for their actions! The despotic Buhari regime ensured justice was delayed (and denied by implication) using their stranglehold on the Nigerian judiciary and this same method is now being used by the so called ‘southern president’ they handed the baton of hegemonic oppression to! It’s clear they don’t have a legal leg to stand on hence the resorting to extra-judicial/unorthodox means to ‘solve’ the Kanu/secession problem! They have form in this regard….similar extra-judicial/unorthodox means were deployed to ‘solve’ the Dele Giwa, Saro-Wiwa, MKO Abiola, Kudirat Abiola, Patrick Yakowa, SARS, etc, questions! It’s a tried and tested means of silencing any opposition to their hegemonic control of Nigeria, so i believe Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor 100%!

EmeeNaka:
The mention of Nnamdi Kanu invalidated everything you have written there. Kanu has killed more Igbo people than Fulani terrorists.

You waffle on and on without saying anything! Who are the Igbo people Mazi Kanu killed….and when/where did he kill them!?

The only reason you intensely hate and fear Mazi Kanu is because you see him as a threat to the continued existence of your ‘ATM and inheritance’ that is ‘one Nigeria’!

Lumidee007:


Like Peter obi is the superman in justice league that will suddenly stop the violence.

I don't think there would have been much difference if he would have been the president.

It's not a day job, not even 10 years.The years of corruption has caused mental disorder in all Nigerians. It will take a miracle to heal everyone in 10years. Violence is in all humans.

If given a freehand, even i can drastically reduce the high spate of insecurity in Nigeria in just 6 months! The problem with Nigerians is that they think they can get different and better results doing the same thing over and over again! We all know what to do to change our fortunes for the better, but entrenched and powerful forces keep on preventing a total overhaul of the system because they’re benefiting from it…..and because they’re thinking of the freedom and advantages the ‘hated competition’ stands to gain!

GeneralOjukwu:


Beat .. how and where ?

If APC rigged like you claim, you don't realize they played on your intelligence by dashing him Lagos and Abuja?

They gave the 2 to him so that disputing the elections would even be harder. " I won Abuja & Lagos... but you rigged SW and the North" How stupid does that sound?

Think about it, you were solidly fooled.

Rubbish! It’s just like a boy that’s just been thoroughly beaten in a fight…and in floods of tears, telling the boy who’s just whopped his ass that he let him win just to ‘play on his intelligence’!

Dude, Peter Obi beat the crooked godfather in the last presidential elections in Lagos DESPITE all the rigging of the electoral process deployed against him! This was what made the emilokan camp shit their pants and subsequently throw caution to the winds as they went for broke….deploying all manner of threats, physical attacks, ethnic-baiting and rigging to ensure the peoples will didn’t triumph again in the gubernatorial election that was to follow!

That Tinubu was roundly and soundly rejected in the last presidential elections in the state tells you all you need to know about how he and his party are perceived in the state! Both him and his boy Sanwo-Olu are prancing about with stolen mandates!

chrisxxx:
If someone says something that is correct you listen to it only and comply. If what is said is wrong you reply and let him know he is wrong. Join the dots.

A Daniel come to judgment!

CandidAdmin:
Seriously?

Never knew it was that bad.

Nigerians, whether APC, LP, PDP. Whether Hausa Igbo or Yoruba,

WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING!

Who I am kidding, do we even care?

Some people have finally found their voice while some have lost theirs...

Well sha, sooner or later, our body will move even if our mind doesn't want to.

Whatever that means.

Leave Igbo out of it! Let those who ‘won’ the uncivil war and who blame Ndigbo for all the woes of Nigeria….those who have controlled the political-economy since the late 60s….let them be the ones to lead the charge in changing Nigeria to the safe, secure, peaceful, united and economically viable country you all would like it to be! The moment Igbo get involved and the effort gets sabotaged from within by the usual suspects who want to protect their loot and criminally acquired privileges, some wouldn’t hesitate to heap all the blame on Ndigbo and add that to our list of ‘sins’!

Fact of the matter is, had the other ethnicities supported Mazi Kanu in confronting the ruling hegemonic establishment, Nigeria would have been better off for it today! But some can’t see or reason beyond their hatred for Ndigbo! They see Ndigbo as ‘conquered slaves’….’3rd class citizens’ who’re beneath them in the pecking order!

Some power-hungry bigots sold you all a dummy and made you lot believe a questionable character like Tinubu would take Nigeria to the promised El-Dorado!

Goodmarlian:
this people will conquer nigeria,its seems other ethnic group are docile and less concerned about self preservation,i would say igbos are trying but its not enough·

Just imagine fora second that's it's Igbo going about the south-west and north for nearly a decade now....kidnapping; raping; butchering men, women, kids and babies; sacking entire communities; etc! Can you hazard a guess as to the reaction of particularly the Yoruba and Fulani?

Ceegar01:
Proposed 10 storey hotel building in Awka by Prof. Soludo
Solution is Here!
Awka 2.0
Let's support Soludo I believe he will deliver

Hehehehehe

Hope you’re serious and not just being sarcastic! Some may say that’s pie-in-the-sky and not realisable!

They would NEVER have been caught, named and paraded had we still been in the Buhari era! Their contacts in the army and police barracks (where they probably go to hide) would have rescued and spirited them away under the guise of ‘federal authorities taking over the case’, and that’s how everything will die down and be forgotten….with the bereaved left behind to mourn the loss of their loved ones! Before the cursed Buhari regime, it was unheard of that northern/Fulani criminals could operate anywhere in the south with such brazenness and impunity!

When i argue that a lot….if not most of the insecurity going on in the south-east is imported/engineered, i know exactly what i’m talking about! There are certain kinds of merciless and disgusting crimes Ndigbo are not known for, which only started after Buhari became president, and which some people are desperate to pin on us to help further their anti-Igbo propaganda campaign!

Starhearts:
I love casablanca, morocco 🇲🇦.... d city of white house 🏠??..

Pray to go back one day....

Where black nd Arab get equal right

I’ve come to realise Morocco is one of the least racist North-African/Arab countries! Tunisia, Algeria and Libya….is hard to choose the worst racist amongst them!

Armon:



I asked again.. which project is Soludo handling that is a huge magnitude? The ekwulobia flyover only for 4 years.. check that of Obiano on first tenure ?

Your may not agree I am seeing what Abia is doing to restore a dead Aba city…

Brother we want more ..

Oliver Twist!

Damn...she looks like a goddess! So beautiful!

Never mind a thousand ships....she looks good enough to raise the Titanic!

Black Africas' major problems are the forcing of disparate and heterogeneous groups/ethnicities together in the same country; the replacing of neocolonialism with colonialism; and the rise of a oppresive indigenous political ruling class who suddenly came into so much wealth, power and privilege when the colonialists left and imbibed the oppressive mindset of their former colonial masters! As the colonialists left in the 60s, the black African political class moved into the recently vacated mansions and GRAs of their former colonial masters, and this was bound to have some kind of negative effect on their pysche!

pocom35:


Your emphasis on this is pointless... being a police officer anywhere in the world regardless of pay is a risky job.

There are other units in the police force less risky than the other..if you are bothered about Ipob and their criminality.. police officers have the liberty of working a transfer to another state or safer environment..
There are thousands of officers in Lagos, Abuja etc that are not indigenous to that region..

Plus the capture of kanu and the uprise against Ipob by both the FG and imo/anambra state governments have made the SE a bit calm compared to previous years where criminals were encouraged to attack security personnel..

Let's be reasonable not emotional.

Your entire post reeks of conjectural claptrap yet you have the temerity to ask others to 'be reasonable and not emotional'!?

Mazi Kanu was kidnapped in Kenya and has been held unjustly for years in your 'just Nigeria'.....with your 'just federal gov't' employing all sorts of delay tactics and tricks to stall the trial of someone they'd have the world believe they have a cast-iron case against! The same 'just federal gov't' is releasing murderous terrorists who they claim have promised not to be naughty anymore! The entire sordid affair would have been laughable if it wasn't so tragic!

You see all the criminality your wicked Nigerian security are engaged in, yet you're fixated on trying to label IPOB as 'criminals'! A peaceful secessionist organisation that's only interested in a referendum aimed at freeing their people from the hellhole of 'one Nigeria'!

What's your ethnicity and which of the three major presidential candidates in the last election did you support? I want to check something!

YoshihideSuga:


Don't bother responding to someone who in his other comments write southeast as "sad east".

Such a person has a prejudiced and unshakable mindset!

DesChyko:
I daresay the Nigerian Police Force is largely a disgraceful and volatile occupation. They're underpaid and overworked. They're hardly in the news for anything nice, as long as I remember.

Reform the Nigerian Police to become more honourable and attractive so tha youths can see that as a profession worth pursuing.

These days, if you ask a bunch of secondary school leavers what they want to become, you won't hear policeman from them 🤷🏾‍♂️

Hehehehehe

Imagine you enter a classroom and ask pupils one by one what they want to be when they grow up! One after the other stands up, says their preference and sits down for the next, and unsurprisingly all you hear is 'doctor...lawyer....engineer....pilot.....footballer.....afrobeat star....etc'! They all mention the usual careers and professions....except this one boy who stands up, and when you ask him what he wants to be when he grows up, he confidently answers 'olopa' with his full chest and sits back down again! You'd have to pinch yourself to make sure you're not dreaming!

adamusuleiman2:

OP. That girl is not his girlfriend. That girl herself is gay and she is a very proud one at that.

That's the same girl below. In her caption, she changed angel Gabriel to angel GAY-briel.

It also looks like she has a dick.

The pains you insecure bigots take to try and drive a false narrative....if you took similar pains to hold your emilokan god to account, Nigeria would be a much better place for it!

Can't you see the lady in that picture is dressed up for a role in a play or film? Get a life!

braveboi4life:
I dont blame you, it's the SHE governor I blame.

Try that with Obaseki, you and your father's house will be gone and you will be banished from the state and nothing will happen

Hehehehehe

Fulani bandits nko?

That one no concern nairaland and Tinubu minions as much as IPOB, Pierre Obi and Mazi Kanu matter!

Yesterday was for Pierre Obi and his family! Today they've decided to return back to thier favourite whipping-boys....IPOB and ESN! I even doubt ESN still exists in the form it took when Mazi Kanu formed it!

nony43:





Abeg na Propaganda. Have they arrested the people that killed 200 people on Christmas Eve?

Please don't waste your time trying to educate these hateful bigots! They have a script and they're sticking with it....no matter how deceitful and erroneous it is!
