Amumaigwe:Then be prepared to kill more (thousands) of your maidens. |
Most Islamic extremists have similar traits with our Eastern blodas: hate, hypocrisy and intolerance. The same people who vehemently opposed BBC for wishing them Barika deSallah will be the first to criticize/abuse extremists who are against Mo Salah and Amir Khan Christmas celebration. Just yesterday they applauded/Justified parents who murdered their daughter for getting pregnant for a Yoruba-Muslim but you'll find them on this thread condemning the Arabs. The world will be a better place without hatefull/filled people |

aadoiza:Lol... I'll give you a million years and you won't still be able to provide answers to the questions. You can fool some, some of the time, but you can't fool all, all of the time. Na ya'ete, you don't know nothing. |
aadoiza:The Almajiri school of Sheik Inyass you attended at Adavi can't make you think straight. Even if you're going to come up with a conspiracy theory, put up something a little bit plausible. Let's assume US is responsible for Boko Haram, Iswap, Isis, Fulani herdsmen, Religious crisis in the north, Muslim brotherhood, Alshabab, Hamas, Hezbolah, Al-Qaeda, Ansaru, Al nusra, Mujahedeen and every other evil you can think of on earth. My questions are 1. Why do US find a willing tool in a particular set of people to carry out these assumed heinous crimes? 2. Why will they (US) take interest in countries with little or no Economic values but rather protect and even form alliances with similar countries with Economic prowess (e. g Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Lebanon, Brunei)? what did US stand to gain in destabilizing Nigeria with a budget not up to a state department in the US, that they won't get in 100 folds in UAE? or why will US sponsor Alshabaab in Kenya when Kuwait or Saudi will give them over million times what they want in Kenya? 3. Let's assume US are fallible of the two above, Why can't the terrorist direct their attacks on the US who is the alleged culprit? What concern an aid worker in Nigeria with a supposed crime of USA in Syria? Or what connection is their between the cartoon of Mohammed in the Scadinavia and the massacre in Northern Nigeria? Successfully provide answers to this questions and I will believe your conspiracy theories. |
aadoiza:Onura, you think I'm from the east, check my posts, I'm omoluabi.It's only almajiri education of yours that will correlate and justify the beheading of 11 Nigerians in Nigeria because a terrorist committed suicide in far away Syria. Egbira lasan-lasan |
aadoiza:I will never understand any justification for terrorism... You need to burn every certificates you've, your education is a waste. |
aadoiza:Eresu ewu ne'va ezoza. So because a world reknown terrorist who has orchestrated the killings of thousands (Christians and Muslims alike) commited suicide at the sight of US armies now give legitimacy to this dastardly act. Some of you guys need to have your head checked. The fact that you're from an extremely violent tribe doesn't mean the world should also see things from your myopic violent lens. |
madapcmod:Nnamdi kanu too is British, therefore he's not igbo (beerfraud) ... going by your logic. Hatred runs in you peoples vein, and that's why people rightly call you guys the "children of hate" |
This people's victim mentality and persecutory syndrome is neausating. Over 90% of the listed road blocks are located in the SW and SS and I'm yet to see a Yoruba, Ijaw or Bini person claiming the road blocks were there to persecute them. You guys need to quit this idea of the world revolving around you, cos' no one cares about your existence |
John Ameh, Abuja President Muhammadu Buhari has praised the President of African Development Bank, Dr Akinwumi Adesina, the Board of Governors and the members of staff on the increase of the bank’s capital from $93billion to $208bn. Describing the increase as “historic”, the President said the bank was now stronger and positioned to perform its core duty of driving growth and development in Africa. “President Buhari joins shareholders of the bank and African Heads of State and governments in celebrating the feat, which clearly demonstrates the quality of leadership at the helm of affairs, and the technical expertise that has been steadily pushing reforms for a smart and nimble institution focused on alleviating poverty. “The President felicitates with the leadership of the bank for numerous reforms undertaken to reposition the institution for current global realities and the peculiar needs of the African continent, commending the visionary policies that have started yielding results in providing electricity, financing and modernising agriculture, encouraging industrialisation, integrating Africa and improving the livelihoods of many. “With the historic approval of $115bn by the Board of Governors, which will buoy the Bank’s operations and reach, the President extols Dr Adesina for brilliantly and diligently taking the AfDB to new heights of achievements, and inspiring confidence that, indeed, the Sustainable Development Goals and the African Union Agenda 2063 are realisable”, a State House statement by his media aide, Mr Femi Adesina, said on Sunday. https://punchng.com/buhari-praises-adesina-over-afdbs-capital-increase-to-208bn/ Cc: Lalasticlacla, Mynd44

Who else is not surprised that most of the negative comments above are from people from a particular section of the country. They always ignore their scars and raise concern over others eczema. They expect a 4 month old government (in a raining season) to turn Lagos roads to that of Dubai, while their states remain desolate, deserted and in ruins. 8filled people |
Chelsea’s Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham have been called up by England for the Euro 2020 qualifiers in the Czech Republic and Bulgaria but there is no place for Dele Alli or Jesse Lingard. Other notable absentees are Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who had been in the previous squad, and Kyle Walker, who has again been omitted. Wan-Bissaka did not play for Manchester United on Monday because of injury and pulled out of the most recent England squad with a back problem. Kieran Trippier and Trent Alexander-Arnold have been selected as the right-backs. Tomori, a central defender, has been called up for the first time and two other Chelsea players have been included by Gareth Southgate: Mason Mount and Ross Barkley. Alli might have hoped for a recall after his return to fitness but Southgate has preferred Barkley, Mount and James Maddison in the more creative midfield positions. There is also a place in the squad for Fabian Delph. Southgate said of Tomori: “His profile as a defender fits with the way international football is. Athleticism is important; he is capable with the ball. We think it’s a good opportunity to have a closer look at him.” Tomori and Abraham are also eligible to play for Nigeria and, in the defender’s case, Canada but Southgate said he would not use them in a competitive game to close that door. “I don’t think it’s ethically right to select someone just to make sure he can’t play for somebody else,” England’s manager said. “Fik and Tammy are in on merit. They’ve both been part of our youth system. Fik came in a bit later but he was part of the team that won the [Under-17] World Cup – as far as we’re concerned they’re English players.” Southgate said Abraham, who has two caps and has scored eight goals in his past 10 Chelsea games, had “really grasped this opportunity at the start of the season” but that Lingard’s less impressive form had led to the United midfielder’s omission. “Jesse has had a difficult period,” said Southgate, though he emphasised that he had “huge faith” in Lingard. He indicated that Callum Hudson-Odoi, just back from injury, would be included in the Under-21 squad named on Friday. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/oct/03/england-squad-abraham-tomori-alli-lingard-wan-bissaka cc: lalasticlacla, Mynd44 |
mrgoodd:You seems ignorant of Nigeria's anti-gay laws. The Newtelegraph succinctly describe it as: "A new law in Nigeria, signed by the president without announcement, has made it illegal for gay people to even hold a meeting. The Same Sex Marriage Prohibition Act also criminalizes homosexual clubs, associations and organizations, with penalties of up to 14 years in jail" https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/nigeria/10570304/Nigeria-passes-law-banning-homosexuality.html This is a law passed by our national representing the interest of their constituents (Nigerians) Bobrisky has continually broke and he keeps breaking the laws which prohibit even an open support of Homosexuality or their Assembly. If the police should suspect that his birthday will provide a platform for homos to assemble, they're enabled under the law to stop such assembly and effect arrest. Some of you have become puppets of the western nations and assume all their actions are the best, some twenty years ago this same western nations have rules and laws prohibiting same sex association and because some of them have renege on their moral stance in the name of being liberal and are now advocating for a social vice they once frown at, people like you feels the rest of the world should shove it down their throats because your white lords can never be wrong. They (west) came through their religion and made ours look devilish and satanic, we took it hook, line and sinker. The same Holy Books they sold to us criminalises homosexuality and now they're telling us to accept what they spend their money, time, blood and life preaching to us as abomination They criminalise narcotics only to do a reverse and we've seen narcotics advocate (even a sitting governor) rising all over the world clamoring for the legalization of marijuana. Why msst Africa always be a caricature of western culture? |
People from the other side of the Niger are naturally emotional just like the Arabs and less logical and tactical. it's in their DNA. That's why you'll see grown up men who has spend decades in Europe still behaving like the louts in upper eweka, pulling up sticks and stones to lynch an individual who is not in the capacity to change anything in Nigeria and who has been sympathetic to their cause. Over there, disagreements over ideologies means you're a saboteur, traitor, Efulefu etc. Their Uzobu Uzobu gra gra emotional approach to issues is their way and any one who chooses to differ is called coward. Today they're singing Ike's praise, tomorrow they're crucifying him. They are as unstable as the wind and only take the direction of their hate. |
At times I begin to wonder if the lawyers Atiku's parading ever went to law school or they're just interested in Atiku's money. They are a complete disgrace to the legal profession. |
Ziggylady:of course, your wailings entertains me... � June 12 was a case of a stolen mandate, had Abiola lost the election nobody would have objected to that. Yorubas didn't went about abusing igbos or wailing for GEJs' marginalization, we only realigned, restrategize and kicked him out of office through the ballot. And about those who contributed to the emergence of Jonathan: we know those who stood up to protest against the northern oligarchies plot to install kingibe as president through the back door. Soyinka, Bakare, Falana, Beko kuti, and other EnoughIsEnough members forced the NASS to invoke the "doctrine of necceccity" to make gej president. We also know the prominent role the West (Obj, Tinubu, Afenifere etc) played in making GEJ victorious over the Adamu Ciroma's consensus candidate of the north, Atiku (your onetime enemy which you now worship). You can't re-write history sis. In one breathe you accuse Yorubas of making buhari president in another breathe you claim they contribute the least to his emergence... I don't get. please tell us who was Obj's opposition and inform us if Tinubu, Gani Fawehinmi, Falana etc and even Afenifere who are against him are Junkun or Tivs. I guess Yorubas also hated Atiku when they provided him their political platform ACN to contest against Yaradua in 2007, Why didn't he opt for APGA? The Yorubas who voted him too did so out of hatred right? You can counter the Lagos-Ibadan media with your Ipob bureau of Statistics. Against facts there are no arguments. |
Ziggylady:The difference is we don't go about wailing, crying and trying to emotionally blackmail others because of our Political misfortune unlike our blodas. Records/history has shown that the east has form more alliance and allegiance to the North than any other region, still you won't see others calling them traitors, betrayals and all sort of names because of their political decision, but despite a substantial 45% of the west voting for pdp in 2015 and even more westerners voting for Atiku THAN the easterners(with an igbo VP) in 2019, the wailing of the bush babies won't still stop in lumping a whole tribe and region and calling them all sort of names. it's also on record that the most vocal critics of this government are Yorubas, but how can you pacify a hate-filled bush baby? Even when Obj was the president his greatest opposition were his people. Amaechi, Akpabio, El Rufai etc are polical merchants sourcing for patronage, we see them as such here and we don't ascribe them a demi-god status like you guys do. When the Yorubas aided Jonathan in taking his rightful place as president after the demise of Yaradua and helping his reelection in 2011 where were you? So if a majority of them decides otherwise in 2015, why can't you respect their choice and move on? And just to let you know the Yorubas love not only igbokwe, idumodu, akabueze but every law abiding citizens living in our domain provided they live by the terms and conditions of their host, and the immigration demographics attest to that. It's a one way traffic from the East to the West. Yorubas don't hate Atiku (we have no reasons to hate him), that more Yorubas preferred Buhari to Atiku doesn't translate to hate. More Yorubas voted for Atiku than Igbos (2019 election result attest to this). Most of the people that spoke in support of the shittes are yorubas...talk another one... lol. |
Ziggylady:Denigrade, Abuse, Insult, Plot and Conniving against others, Spewing lies, Falsehood and Propaganda are all ingredients of Politics (that's why it's called a dirty game), from the US to the UK to Russia and other advanced democracies it abounds. But that's not hate, it's simply the game. When you start attaching emotions (hate and love) to the game is where the problem lies. It's better get over your 2015/GEJ hangover. That's why every Tom, dick and Harry can press your mumu buttons anyhow by appealing to your hate. An FFK that invented most of the unprintable names GEJ was called, wrote several articles against the igbos and even described how he fvcked Bianca, crossed over to the Pdp when he was shortchanged in the sharing formula of Apc and became an overnight hero of a people he once denigrade. Odumakin was in 2011, spokesperson of Buhari/ Cpc, but when Apc preferred a better liar in lai Mohamed to him after the merger he crossed over and people who once loathe him started singing his praise. You hate Fulanis but love atiku and kwankwaso. You hate Muslims but love Shittes. You hate Afonjas but love Saraki (a red blood afonja) You hate Apc but love Pdp (two Monstrous rouges). Hundreds of instances abounds. The fact is, you only love people who hate what you hate. Until you and your people stop attaching emotions to Politics, every Kanu, FFK and Reno will keep making a foool out of you. |
Ziggylady:Shehu Sani to us is never a hero nor a villian. And that's the difference between the logical west and the emotional east, Love and hate doesn't exist in our politics, it's simply self interest. When we lose out in the political scheme (like in the days of GEJ), we don't go about crying and whining about like our blodas, we only go back to the drawing board and restrategize. Hating on everyone like a rabid dog won't give you any political leverage it'll rather break the few bridges you've left. |
Some people who saw shehu sani as a hero will start calling him name. Anyone who aligns with their hate narratives becomes their hero and anytime you deviate you're called all sort of names. |
Elvis778:I wouldn't have mention someone like you in the first place, you quoted me first. Check my posts kid, there is a threshold of IQ required to converse with me, when you've attain the threshold, you can come over for tutelage. Detective Jack Bauer... lol |
Elvis778:The only person not using his/her brain here is you, you'll rather choose to be emotional than rational in your thinking. Inec has never denied having a server for accredited voters. When you go to Inec office to register for your voters card, your bio data and biometry was captured and stored somewhere, when you get accredited on election day your informations were verified from somewhere. That's the Accreditation (Back-end) server. The bone of contention here is the pseudo Inec result server. |
Nothing in Reno Omokiri's Inec memo revealed that Results were transmitted, the number of accredited voters is all that was transmitted to the server according to the memo. Accredited voters and Results are two different things. If Atiku can't argue his case on a polling unit by polling unit bases then he's only chasing shadows. Atiku will do well by substituting his current lead counsel (Izoukwu) with that of Adeleke (Ikpeazu). Ikpeazu argued issues and brought in prepared witnesses not this macabre dance Izoukwu is doing. If Olanipekun can win the Rivers 2015 election for Wike on the bases that Card readers are not enshrined in the constitution, then this server nonsense will be a rollercoaster for him. You don't face a Wole Olanipekun with all this nonsense, you'll end up being legally raped. |
Bravo |
You supported renegades/rebels of other parties and expect your own members to be loyal and faithful right? PDP's hypocrisy and double standard is nauseating. They better get down to the real business of providing robust opposition to this government instead of chasing shadows and making mockery of themselves. |
Am I surprised that all those against Remi are from a certain region? NO!!! Hatred, Inferiority complex and Pseudo-persecutory syndrome is engraved in their DNA, they would rather cut their nose to spite their face |
selemempe:There are 16Yorubas and 10 igbos on the list. Some of the names that sound igboish are actually Igala and Benue names. |
