Itsekiri and isoko are tribes. Am talking about political parties

bros I know what I'm saying!

CHIJIOKE1314:
I am sharing a country with Vampires..

God, Allah, JUJU, anything.. Anyone.. Please save me from these vampires as country men..

May God bless #NnamdiKanu and punish Nigeria...

But the great citizen #NnamdiKanu was been unnecessarily polite when he called Nigeria a Zoo..
To me Zoo is far, far better than this hellhole called Nigeria..

You just killed hundreds of people just because of Allah.. No amount of pretence would convince any reasonable and unbiased mind otherwise..

preach preach!

HammerTheirPapa:
If they want to be Biafrans nobody is stopping them. You only need common sense to be Biafran. Even the sultan of Sokoto if he becones sensible tommorow and understand that All men are created equal and ban the Almajiri/ Feudal social system; by default he becomes Biafr*n.

what a response!!

oweniwe:
No 1: is not possible in Nigeria because of tribalism.... In other places where they have just 2 or 3 races/ethnic groups in a country it is easier to speak as one... But with Nigeria ... Everything boils down to tribalism...

During council/ward elections... Villagers are not one... Bickering over which section of the village will produce d councillor usually crop up... If a councillor gets "elected " and he is not performing... The councillor' s clan/quarter will not support other village quarters to remove "their son ".

At the local government level, it is same thing.

At State level... Let me use Delta as example ... Delta has over 8 ethnic groups within it... Urhobo, Aniocha, Ijaw, Isoko, Ukwuani, Ika, Itsekiri, Ilaje .... If the governor has urhobo father and itsekiri mother and his wife is from isoko... If the governor is corrupt ... Urhobo, itsekiri and isoko people will not allow "their son" to be removed.

So when it comes to politics/money matters in Nigeria ... Everything boils down to ethnicity .... They only speak with one voice if the representative is "stingy "...

2. It is not as if citizens are not asking or they are not complaining... I have told you earlier that complaints, protests and demonstrations amount to nothing in Nigeria because the law shields elected representatives... So if people protest, riot and demonstrate, it doesn't have any effect on a sitting political executive.... So it is somehow ... Useless to protest in Nigeria ... People have been protesting against fulani herdsmen... What has Buhari done about it? Nothing

3. Madam, you're speaking from both sides of the mouth... How can common people stone a political office holder with mopol around him? Prime Ministers in other countries resigned over panama papers but in Nigeria, has anybody resigned? If people resort to stonning corrupt representatives, you will say they're barbaric... They are primitive ... Etc... What you are advocating ... Here... It is called "to gang up against somebody ".. all the person you want to remove has to do is to form a rival support group ... That's all

4. It is like you have not served in or don't live in Nigeria ... That is why you say corpers should speak with "one voice "... Oh dear... You're so funny... Corpers are posted to different states, LGAs and PPAs... What happened to Rivers corpers does not concern a Sokoto or Enugu corper in any way... Same thing with corpers posted to different LGAs.

5. What is the meaning of this nau? .. if you don't change /amend the constitution of Nigeria ... To remove, stone, protest or sue an elected representative is not possible in Nigeria .. ...

All these things you are talking about... Holding representatives responsible et al... With immunity clause in the Nigerian constitution, it is not possible ... You will have to change the law/amend the constitution first...

And just like some people don't want the constitution changed ... You are against changing the constitution too... You want common people to hold their representatives responsible but you don't want Nigeria' s constitution to be altered to give the people /states/ regions more power... How will this work? ... How can you make omelette without breaking the egg?

6. So because Abacha/IBB are military rulers gives them liberty to rule anyhow? Because they are military rulers gives them justification to loot the the treasury, arrest and detain people anyhow they wish?

A democratically elected representative will use the same excuse to prevent people from holding him responsible ... The law says he is innocent until proven guilty... And since common folks cannot lay hands on evidences to prove him guilty.. he will go scot free.

So... Nigeria, the way it is, can never work... The earlier you admit and accept it, the better for you.

All we are saying is... Restructure Nigeria ... If you don't want Nigeria restructured... Then break up the goddam country ...!!..

epic!!!! you have said everything!

Here are the few pix I was able to snap.

I'm the short guy in the second pix

I thought people said yorubas are not employed in the east? goodluc joor

obailala:
Bro, I am obviously not the sick, paranoid, deluded twerp here. I pointed out things which I believe can make a great enterprise greater, but only a foolish soul thinks everyone they meet online must be an idiotic tribalist who turns everything into a fight. Gerrarrahia!

you are not only a liar but a hypocrite.. and functional one at that. you have repeatedly claimed to be igbo, whereas I have never seen anything in your post that point at that.. I dare you screen grab the typo and paste it here.. even cnn had made worse mistakes, and that is your basis for condemning them, mind I'm also a staunch critic of innoson, but you are deceiving yourself oye ofe mmanu like you.. Another stop claiming intelligent you very far from it..

Op you don't have to explain to those low lives! they don't deserve to understand the trick..... The thing is igbo people don't care about those hypocrites sponsored by tinubu and APC pay as you post urchins..they want everyone to join them in the selective prosecution.
Besides ikwesiri ima na divide and rule tactics they have being bringing to the east can be replicated in their region too..

you mean the itsekiri and Isoko?

VivianUdeogu:
Even IPOB youth are now supporting Saraki. They no longer protest for Nnamdi Kanu and Biafra, they protest for Saraki. SMH

I know you're yoruba! And the Mod!! Keep doing your dirty job!!! We know who and what you represent!!!

you mean yoruba moaning on twitter!! they're shielding Aregberascal!! wake me up when you show me their tweets against Aregberascal!

seunajia:
You mad bro?

A rail line that'd transverse the length and integrate southern Nigeria is a trick. Come, dem dey follow you?

Do you know the impact of having train stations/stops in towns? Tourism, agriculture, human transport?

You know what, don't bother. Contunu, you're doing yasef.

I think the meme should be for you! The project will make south south a consuming region!!! I know what I'm saying!!! for example, go to any shop in bayelsa! 80percent of the contents are either foreign or from lagos, then this time around, it will be 100percent! this will kill every indigenous company in bayelsa.. we Igbos reason with our innermost brain that is designated for business, that's why we are seeing through this joke of a project... it were Abakaliki enugu onitsha Asaba akure sagamu lagos, we will still oppose it.... we know what you are capable of doing...

seunajia:
Honestly, these iPod guys are totally irredeemable! This is not "ordinary eyes" o. These guys here are actually saying no to development! Wow wow.

No they are becoming smarter by the day! they're exposing your tricks! that's why you hate them!! you want them to continue to import through lagos...

Realman87:
My dear, am from the Niger Delta. Our priority now is a deep seaport so that we can emancipate our people from poverty. A seaport will create thousands of jobs and will spur the growth of businesses. Not that I oppose the rail line, but it is NOT an urgent need. How many jobs will it create? And please stop making it look like the igbos oppose the project that will benefit the SS, because in reality; the project only benefits the SW.

Good response! now people are reasoning!!! This is pure economic politics!!!I'm so happy that our people are waking up.. we see through these hypocrites that are rambling up and down..

until you show me the link where you wrote same thing about fulani herdsmen!! meanwhile you have nothing good to write about ipob...

mapet:
Bros,

Your post is laced with crass ignorance and bile, this has probably robbed it of the intellectual value it should have been. Ibaka port is Akwa Ibom state project. PDP was in government for virtually the whole time the port was conceptualised, yet it never materialised. You should ask yourself why? You blame a government that is trying to get off to start for a supposed project (a state project for that matter) that Akwa Ibom could not bring to light? Meanwhile are these port projects not supposed to be private sector led?

Now my tots on the project is even different. The Akwa Ibom state government may not be able to muster the strength to pull it off as quickly as Lagos did Lekki FTZ Port and Airport. The two environments are different, Lagos is light years ahead of Akwa Ibom on all fronts and investors will see through these criteria to put their money.

Now to the Cal-Lag rail........
1. What still baffles me is that you lot seem so myopic that you cannot see the big picture. How can you be looking for the benefit of Lagos or Calabar in isolation when the rail line will traverse Calabar >> Uyo >> Aba >> PortHarcourt >> Yenegoa >> Otuoke >> Yenegoa >> Ugheli >> Warri >> Sapele >> Benin >> Agbor >> Asaba >> Onitsha >> Benin >> Ore >> Ijebu Ode >> Sagamu >> Lagos. Or do you think the rail line will fly on water from Lagos to Calabar?

2. Some of you people are your own worst enemies. How in the world can you say a rail project that is passing through 11 south-south cities is "aimed at diverting attention and those supporting it now, are supporting it because it's not a project that will give you (south south) economic independence,rather a parasitic one to lagos". What other development are you looking for? Are you going to force ships to a non-existent and not-to-be-in-the-near-term Ibaka port?

3. South Easterners like you need to ask yourself what do you truly want? 2nd Niger bridge, you complain, Cal-Lagos Rail you complain.........

you should go and look at the route properly to know exact rout where the railway line will pass through and stop pulling out things from your asssss!
people like me see through your antics, why are you lots using this project to divert attention of the populace to the obvious fraud committed by presidency on this budget e.. now y'all that haave been against Ibaka sea port are now supporting this project with an innate agenda, the point remains that South south priority for development is sea port and not railway..

donstevoz:
You write like a kid sir. Political correctness won't kill you in Jesus name! And what is it wit 'diverting attention' , did you come across it newly?

I would have allowed you to go by but no! I don't allow stupid people around here. oya swerve!! everybody has seen your stupidity

obailala:
Apologies if my generalised opinion irks you. But I was seriously appalled by the responses I got in a similar thread, hence my generalisations.

apologies accepted!! go and sin no more

Onenaira1:
Ooooo so we have this type of group in that Nigeria. So where were they when Fulani were busy slaughtering people in MB, SW, SS and SE. Na sleep dem dey sleep okwuya.

Look at name of the chairman....Comrade Samson Ayodele Babalola...yoloba. if i call am slaves now, I'll be banned but una see what I dey look at. The Nigga careless about the yoloba lives fulani have been wasting in ekiti, osun, ogun, ondo, lagos, etc but care about the so called fulani lives wasted in Abia (despite the government of the state mentioned it was a lie).

Let's be real...the only reason this yoloba man care about this is because it mentioned igbo as the aggressor. The Nigga does not care if it's a lie or not, as long he'll sneakily drag igbo to rubbish. I swear the hate the yoloba has for Igbo is out of the world yet they wonder why igbo want nothing to do with am. Tufiakwa!!

bros na only you understand the yorubas!!only you can slay yoruba ugly faces!!! these people can prostrate for anything! I understand what they feel about igbo! they feel threatened, despite all their media noise nobody knows them!!!

Obiagelli:
In anycase someone said earlier this is not a pdp vs apc case but agrees its a SW v SE matter, while the north is enjoying its one project without dispute. So of you are inately stupid

whenever issue that bothers on economy comes up, yorubas dump party affiliation, same with hausafulani but igbo people can not see beyond party! we are talking of economy here!!! the sw people are cunny! their plan is very simple! can't you see it?? why is it very difficult?

when I tell people about yoruba they wave it away! yorubas are poisonous chameleon! whatever that has to do with them is evil! my hatred for them has just increased! just imagine these ugly lunatics! you are lucky nnamdi kanu is still in prison he would have shredded your ugly faces into trashes you belong to! These yorubas have no shame! the Opc are threatning to retaliate fulani killing instead of them to face their worry, they are issuing press release on IPOB! FYI igbo people don't consider yoruba as enemy or threat, they are not in the picture, left for igbo vs yoruba, we would not bath an eye lid, we are battling with hausafulani backed by british and Arabs! yoruba lunatics are masquerading as intelligent human to perpetuate their hidden propaganda! we will deal with your silliness when the time comes! and I can assure you, that hausafulani will watch by the corner!

LadyExcellency:
Please leave Nairaland and get yourself into the real business of socio-political-economics of Nigeria to get insight on why the battle for the soul of Nigeria for better understanding of regional politicking authored by the eminent Regionalist Obafemi Awolowo.

You are not qualified to discuss this thread and so with some other keyboard warriors that just invaded the thread.

Don't mind those little mind! they don't read fast! they think everything is APC and PDP... the people behind this buhaha are the same people against sea port in South south! they'll only call you names, because they have already configured minded that is fickled! I don't worry about them so much... They are people who are roaming proving to people that some blacks are not capable of reasoning..

obailala:
@Obiagelli
I would advise you not to bother engaging some of these people especially as it concerns the benefits of this rail project. I was engaged in an argument this afternoon and I was totally appalled at what I encountered. A particular character specifically argued that a coastal railway would add absolutely no value to Nigeria's economy and that on the downside, it would destroy the 'sea front view' (whatever that means). He also went further to claim that a coastal railway 'would kill people by accidents,' lamenting that the amount of road accident we have is already enough and we shouldn't be adding other sources of accidents.

At first I thought I may have been 'seriously' conversing with a 'Musiwa' a.k.a becomrich, but then it dawned on me that the person I was conversing with was just a hardcore ipob adherent. 'Some' of these guys are hell bent on opposing anything from this government, irrespective of its benefits. Some also do not want any major developmental projects in the SE or SS just to justify their irrational prejudice against Buhari; you sometimes read statements like "Buhari should take his projects to the SW and north and leave the SE&SS alone." But then again, there are even some who specifically do not want anything that links the SE to the SW or other regions of the country. It would be an impossible task explaining to some of these guys with this mindset the importance of anything called a railway. Save your breath!

I can not figure out how you reason!! You have no argument here, what concerns another opinion made by someone else with mine? let me stop here you don't worth the long epistle.

Obiagelli:
How is the ibaka port going to be different from the onne port?

onne is exclusively reserved for crude oil export by FG..

oduastates:
Ibaka sea port.
You can ask Jonathan and friends to fund that.
$3 billion only

really? so what happens to the propaganda against it? how unviable it is..

For me, I don't hide my opinion about things like this, I don't try to impress anyone or to be politically correct. I will allow you to bring up the ibaka sea project by Godswill Akpabio, you will discover the way some sections of the media propagated how unviable the project will be, they attacked and attacked the project to a halt.. now fast forward to 2016 a railway project was claimed to have budgeted for in this year infrastructure budget to a whooping sum of 60billion dollars.. choi! and the national assembly removed them because they are hindering the success of PMB (that's what they want us to believe)lol.. This same project was denied by Budgit.com at least they're somehow credible because they published the first budget when it was passed, stolen, padded and represented again (LWTMB! this budget don suffer what a funny country).
Now looking at the attention diversion strategy the conspirators of this drama, actually wanted to put the masses against nass, and absorb PMB from the blame. now ask yourself, why did the newspapers report that the Nass removed those project, ? "Mind you the main target here is Calabar -lagos railway line" the reason is to divert attention and blame...
Then on another angle, why is the railway line seem to be more important to calabar than to lagos?
what and what have changed on viability of calabar/akwaibom to host sea port, but railway line by some sections of the media propaganda. The answer is simple, the railway line is a project that's aimed at diverting attention and those supporting it now, are supporting it because it's not a project that will give you (south south) economic independence,rather a parasitic one to lagos...
why not use that same money to make all the coastlines viable for goods and services.. they will come and tell me how important the mirage railway line will be,but they'll never tell you same about ibaka sea
shine your eyes! this project is a poisonous project aimed at diverting a lot of things not only attention!

if you look clearly! the project is a pure deceitful! The people who conspired to make this project to look this way are southwestern politicians!! the project should be equally important to lagos nd calabar and not calabar alone!!! The sea port is what ss need and not this headless project!! I tell you, what APC led government are doing is pure conspiracy! to shift attention and confuse the masses... open your eyes... SW. can never support sea port, go and look up their theories on Ibaka sea port, compare that to this Railway....

Oops!! APC can lie eeh!

wake me up any day yoruba race produce this type of person. bisimoto.com/2015/

Just hours before taking the court as a member of

Agbafe received word that Harvard made a decision
about his application. But he waited to find out the
verdict.
“I owed it my teammates to be focused there,”
Agbafe said. “I didn't want to get too low on myself
if I didn't get in. I also didn't want to get too high
if I was accepted.”
After the game, Agbafe found out he was accepted

The point is that Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala has no write to claim she wanted to save when she took the money without appropriation. She did not follow the right means and lost the trust of the governors. It was her who broke the trust with her unscrupulous action.



“Assuming without conceding that the release of the $2 billion was approved by the president, is Mrs Okonjo-Iweala saying funds belonging to the three tiers of government could be unilaterally withdrawn from the ECA by the federal government?

As the coordinating minister of the economy, did she draw the attention of President Jonathan to the illegality of withdrawing funds from the ECA without approval of the states and the local governments, the co-owners of the fund?”...Femi Falana.
