This information is rather stale. It is now 4 confirmed dead and 159 still missing - over 30 hours since the collapse.
Finding more survivors at this point would be nothing short of a miracle. Thankfully, a lady and a 12 year old were rescued alive some hours ago but unfortunately, the lady had to have a leg amputated. One can only imagine the agony of being buried alive for hours under twisted steel and concrete.
May their souls rest in peace and the remaining found alive.
tutudesz: Wike is not liked by PDP governor's and BOT members, while the opposite in Okowa case. Okowa has the Support of Northerner PDP leaders and governor's
How many northern PDP leaders have the influence of Buhari, El-Rufai, Kwankwaso, Zulum or Tambuwal? Do those people even rate an Okowa? Lol. Those are the earthly names that will determine 2023 in the North. Don't be deceived
Wike is not only the financial backbone of PDP, but he's the only one from the SS/SE that can boast of garnering the northern votes PDP is hoping for thanks to his patriotic stance and camaraderie with Tambuwal.
Okowa on the other hand is unknown and untrusted by the northern electorate. Dead on arrival.
tutudesz: Tambuwal/Okowa is what most PDP governor's are pushing for, Wike is unsellable in South East, he talks anyhow to other governor's, he lack respect for PDP leaders, he divided the PDP House of Rep into two factions
Okowa is also very unsellable in the North and PDP needs those votes. Desperately.
If PDP cared about SE votes they would have zoned the ticket to them.
Atiku is an unelectable candidate and we've been telling them since 2019 but they were too busy looking for a server result that never went missing. Good morning Deji.
Tambuwal/Wike are the best choice for PDP Ticket if they really want to stand a chance in 2023...
Otherwise its an automatic walkover for APC/Tinubu /Osibanjo
Waterysperm: Type next time without crying. Now let me burst your brain, Ninety five percent of those killed and paraded by the Police and your Army were Innocents. That was why the boys were called to calm down. If not, there won't be a single police station anywhere in the East by now. They are getting more and more equipped, more boys are joining their ranks even from Benue and Southern Kaduna axis. The events of next few months will surprise you. But if you doubt me, enter any of the Eastern bushes with your cows to confirm. They have even occupied Delta bushes and are now spreading in Benue state. ESN has come to stay. Know this and know peace.
Waterysperm: Over powered by your Coward soldiers or who? Keep on ranting, it only ends here on Nairaland. Are you aware that your fellow headSlammers in Delta state are getting it hot already. Watch out for what will happen in Benue state in few days time. You can hit your head on the wall if you are pained about it. But I want you to know one thing and which is, ESN has come to stay. Know this and know peace.
FreedomWinsNow: But thats how guerrilla warfare is fought, cease fire for now while dialogue continues. May peace reign.
Meanwhile the same ESN is operating in Delta State for the actual job they were created , which is dealing with terrorists Fulani Herdsmen.
Biafran4life: They have gone quite because they have finished that particular assignment.Now ipob is a force to reckon with as we have shaken the northern fulani government ,they are now pleading for dialogue Long live biafra and our dependle leader... Great Kanu
Who is in dialogue with whom ?
Buhari with IPOB? Buhari with Ngige? Ngige with IPOB? Buhari with SE Govs? Whom?
Is GMB going to give IPOB referendum or automatic APC ticket or what exactly is the dialogue about?
“When they say want to leave, we say no, some people want to push us out. We are not going to leave Nigeria for anybody.
The Biafra scam is unravelling before our very eyes...
Is this not the same Abaribe that is supporting Kanu secession bid suddenly holding on to Nigeria with so much force and determination?
Biafra agitation has been nothing but a scam to gain political leverage for negotiation but as it has backfired with hundreds of eastern lives lost and PMB not yielding to ipob blackmail, multiple brains have reset.
Let me hear any forsaken scallywag open their mouth again to say Nigerians are holding them back from going to their online republic
lokobyforch: Following the agitations from all regions of the country, Buhari finally decided to take a bow and leave the day to day running of government to the National Youth Service Corps so as to put an end to the insecurities across the country.
For una mind, una never see anything...we move. PMB must come back again and again and again.
This general chest pain you're sharing for wailers haba
Thank God it was a firm Buhari that was in charge to defend Nigeria's pride & sovereignty when it mattered instead of any ineffectual pushover President.
PrinceOfLagos: The south east governors cannot speak for the whole Igbos, they are just 5 in numbers .
governor Umahi retracted his statement on the "Sit at home " order for the falling heroes of the Igbos because the he doesn't want to incur the wrath of the people .
Really?
So if this is true, how come you interpreted Ngige saying that PMB said he will dialogue with SE governors as a victory for Igbo's if the governors don't speak for them?
Abi is it IPOB Ngige said Buhari will dialogue with?
The senselessness of your thread is gradually becoming clearer to you.
donphilopus: Same southeast people who are seriously urging PDP to give their Presidential ticket to a northerner come 2023? I don't understand. If they're that good, they should have been rotating the Presidency amongst themselves since.
Besides, this is the same reason the South South are not ready for anything Biafra. If you can say this about the Fulanis, what would then be the fate of the minority tribes in the South South if they should agree to go with Biafra?
Very unstrategic lot. Ordinary empty statement from Ngige is what triggered all this chestbeating and delusion of grandeur
Anyone that glances at the thread title would think PMB has just agreed to referendum (and not realize this statement is coming just after PMB boldly announced he isn't ceding his power to those that can't win elections thereby putting the final nail in the coffin of restructuring).
PrinceOfLagos: Why the carrot and stick approach when he could easily hush them up and they would obey and sit down .
So they are no 5% and A dot in the circle ?
The Igbos are smart and Buhari knw these .
Well it's the smarter option for the wise.
With this headline alone - Buhari has defused any further calls to UN, EU, FIFA etc. about dictatorial tendencies or related wailings, meanwhile he is yet to make any concessions and has secured the declaration of the SE Governors condemning Nnamdi Kanu and the whole secession movement and ESN are now puppies.
Since CNG asked them to vacate the North and return home for referendum as the elders have been keeping quiet and low key supporting ipob terrorists violence, Kanu is suddenly being OPENLY REJECTED by SE elders - first Eze Ndigbo in the North and now their very own state Governors
Modified:
The impression that South East leaders are silent over some of our youths agitators for secession is not correct. South East Governors, Ohaneze President, National Assembly members, notable leader had come out publicly many times in the past to speak against such agitations.
He is alive and getting himself medically fit for rigorous campaigns and his eventual inauguration as the next President in 2023.
Nigerians across the nation are gearing up to ensure the builder of transformative leaders in Lagos & the original transformer himself applies his midas touch on a national scale.

After driving Kona, the assembled-in-Nigeria electric car at the ongoing Made-in-Nigeria exhibition, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, concluded that the drive was fantastic and the making of the innovative car is a showcase of what is possible in our country.
Kudos to Jelani Aliyu and his team at NADDC for this remarkable feat.
Thank goodness President Buhari had the foresight to bring his international experience as an electric car inventor and designer at GM America back home to help Nigeria become a leading nation in sustainable transportation and renewable energy.
The brilliant inventor has already established a working Solar Powered Electric Car Charging Station in Sokoto (Ibadan and Nsukka to follow) thereby eliminating the problem of inadequate power from the grid while taking advantage of the intense sunlight up north. Absolutely Brilliant.
mancoconut: The delusions of you Ijaws is a textbook case of a local ekuke dog that thinks he is a German shepherd ,
Just for the records, all the attention you irrelevant minorities are getting comes from jobless and irresponsible IPOB miscreants who dey follow una about with no shame! But the greater Igbo nation have corrected their madness and made it clear to the daft IPOB factions that Biafra is no place for non-Igbo minorities but a nation purely built on the homogeneity of Igbo value, language, culture and civilization.
Afriifa: iii. The treacherous and swindling nature of the average Igbo man is duly acknowledged by all ethnic nationalities in the Niger Delta. No amount of romantic histories written by you is going to salvage that. Its an Igbo syndrome, and like a virus that has no cure, the result is there for everyone to see.
Damn.
Afriifa: iv. Insulting the Ijaw people by calling them lazy, ogogoro drinkers, i.e labeling them all sort of derogatory terms and creating one thread here and there to rubbish Boro's legacies because of their opposing views only underscores your desperation.
v.The Niger Delta (South-South) people have all the resources to vie for a separate republic of their own, either collectively as one or seperately as two-three countries as they deem necessary. Respect that! You are not UN. Stop asking for their CV!
Damn Damn!
Afriifa: vi. You are in no moral, economic, political or intellectual position to tell us what to do, as Niger Deltans. Our name is of no meaning, leave it!
