He can’t prevail. Wike May also lose in the long run but on this round one o…Fubara is a goner!

All these stooges never seem to learn. Be it Ambode, Osinbajo and now Fubara. If you ride to power on the back of a godfather, calm yourself down. Politics is different from being a technocrat. They always seem to get there and start believing their own hype or sychophants. It’s a different thing if you got there on your own merit or had a followership.

Of all the people to take on he chose to take on Wike? Wike will take both of them down than have Fubara triumph over him. That is why I say Wike May lose in the end but Fubara is going down!!!

casualobserver:
Fubara cannot pass his budget without approval of the house. He does not control the house. He cannot spend money. If he spends money without approval of the house. he is committing an impeachable offense.

As at today there is no 2024 budget for Rivers state.

CoronaVirusPro:
Fubara should resign!

He should know its game over already!

In fact, Nigeria did economic harm to itself in the course of Africa’s COLLECTIVE struggle for South African liberation - expelling/nationalizing UK and US businesses in Nigeria (Barclays, Standard, Chase, BP, Esso, etc.), blocking direct investment into a Nigeria by several Western companies doing business in Apartheid South Africa, and refusing to sell crude oil to or trade with nations deemed friendly with the Apartheid regime. All of these had a long-lasting (and some would argue, probably still has a) residual effect on the Nigerian economy.

This was in addition to military and non-military support for the ANC and other freedom fighters, material support in form of cash and supplies (including the Southern African Relief Fund, which mandated the deduction of a certain percentage of the wages/earnings of every working Nigerian towards the acquisition/distribution of relief material/supplies to South African exiles), educational and capacity-building support in the form of university scholarships and so on, diplomatic support in the form of the standing UN Committee Against Apartheid that was championed and chaired throughout its existence (bar a couple of years) by Nigeria, as well as accommodating South African exiles in Nigeria (including Thambo Mbeki and, in the initial days of the anti-Apartheid struggle, the late great Madiba Nelson Mandela).

Even though these events occurred well before my time, I do not believe that Nigeria did it with any expectation of reciprocity, but rather for what Nigerians believed was their “manifest destiny” (with a population at the time that amounted to 1 in every 4 Africans and 1 in about every 5 black persons being Nigerian) underpinned by a philosophy that injustice and oppression of black people anywhere is the oppression of all of us. That’s why Nigeria paid the salaries of Antiguan civil servants in the West Indies, endowed HBCUs in the US, supplied crude oil to several African nations at a significant price discount, and donated to minority communities after the Brixton Riots in the UK, among others.

So, you start what you cannot finish? Google is not the one that mentioned those names in your comment. A sensible and sincere person will answer my question without directing me to Google unless I doubt the answer.

immortalcrown:
Why did you respond to my comment instead of letting me read? Explain what they are here and I will read your explanation.

Tell me what they are or admit you say what you don't know.

immortalcrown:
Tell me what they are.

Noted. When will there be Python Dance against Boko Haram?

1. I don’t know about Akintola but that Sardauna was a bad man.

2. I watched African high school debates from the 1950s/1960s organized by the British and one 16 year old boy from the north who was representing Nigeria was boldly talking about how Africa belongs to Islam. Saying white people should leave Africa

At the time , the middle belt was referred to as pagan provinces by both the northern Muslims and southern Christians as they were mostly practitioners of traditional religions. I believe that Jihad would’ve been unleashed on them eventually if this guys didn’t step up

Unfortunately igbos bore the brunt of the whole thing . And the Yorubas knowingly or unknowingly joined hands with the North to consolidate the fallacy that is Nigeria

What I don’t understand is why Awolowo didn’t take advantage of the situation then to secede . He was the one who suggested inserting a secession clause but Azikiwie and Balewa kicked against it. So when the chance came and Biafra seceded , why didn’t Awolowo seize that opportunity and take the Wester region and federal capital Lagos and leave ? The north would have not been able to fight on two fronts .

3. Was it that Awolowo’s hatred for the igbos was greater than his desire for the establishment of a yoruba nation ? So he decided to stay back to fight and punish us . I don’t know

But according to recently declassified memo from Henry Kissinger, US Secretary of State under JFK, the only uniting factor in Nigeria that time was the common hatred of igbos . If not this , I don’t see any other reason why Awo stayed back

gidgiddy:
A thread for unity beggars and their long failed one Nigeria

The destiny of the Igbo nation is to become a full fledged independent country

But the quran calls Jews and Christians pigs. Be deceiving yourself.

While your prophet was robbing caravans as his means of livelihood.

Tell me what work was prophet Mohammed doing while alive and I will tell you what respect for people means.


Watch below and tell me about your foolish respect for people when your prophet had none.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4aTe4_EtMA?si=vDCFhGIA_jWyZMLC

excanny:


You can. But you will be forced to say some gibberish meaningless stuff whether you accept the bandit Muhammad as prophet or not.

You can accept it, doesn't mean anything.

Mohammed didn't even believe in Allah sef, so it makes no meaning at all.

Svoboda:


I'd rather err on the side of caution. Buhari was more opposition friendly. In 2019, wike could have lost reelection but for buharis aloofness. Tinubu, i bet you, wont stand aloof. Putting himself in open opposition is what Fubara cant risk now. Its a tactical cold war. The easiest way to weaken wike is to get close to pbat while treating wikes fckup at the local level because all politics is local.

Svoboda:


He actually needs pbat. Pdp is a lot weaker. Some of the ND govs are only pdp in nomenclature. If he openly goes against pbat, he'd have a stronger force than wike to contend with. To weaken wike, thats his only option to his political self preservation.

Ozommadu:


You only saw the road markings?? You can't see the serenity of the environment??

Go cure yourself of hatred

Kepukepu:
Dalu nu

Svoboda:
Wike will lose out in this fight. Sitting govs are enormously powerful. What fubara has to do is to create a corridor of constant communications with Mr President and swear his loyalty on the life of his children. Pbat is a very smart politician. He understands this game very well. Fubara ought not to hesitate in empowering several among wikes ethnicity. He should use them to fight him dirty from his home stead because wike fights dirty too. We all know how weak a divided house can be. No matter how you see it fubara has the aces.

Racoon:
Hear the idiot terrorist talking shit as usual. These are the brutes one is unfortunate to share country with. The Nigerian state said they have nothing to do with an Igbo man. Yet his idiocy will not allow him be.

shango:
why stop at Arabic notes? Hell we should have a mosque in every state. And instutute Sharia Law so we Nigerians stop living like Kufi Infidels. Maybe then the almighty Emir and Sultan will be appeased.

The problem with Nigeria is that it shouldnt even be a country. Most people would laugh if you wanted to make India and Saudi Arabia one big country for example, or Turkey and China. There is a reason every Nation that works on this planet has a uniform culture, religion and majority tribe. I mean a Sultan making the freaking news and making political commentary? Are in in the 1500s?

Na wa for Naija.

Afam:
And what is the truth if I may ask?

That arabic inscriptions should have not been removed from the naira?

That INEC should allow Atiku (someone already indicted by an administrative panel of inquiry) to run?

Please tell us the truth so we can learn from you.

Karlifate:


Sentiments aside, for "Nigeria govt" to stand as his "guarantor", shows they're also benefitting from his empire which has stood the test of time.

Jorussia:
oga forget that story,Dangote own the entire $19bn? Did you know that over 70% of the money used to finance this refinery are foreign loans that Nigeria govt stood as guarantor?

Ikaeniyan0:
The FG gave out license to more than 20 person to build refineries, Dangote shouldn't be blame for others failure.

Lukuluku69:


You should be asking Jehovah why He had to insist on offering Himself to Himself to forgive His Creature whom He created weak.

Busy your confused olodo head with that. Entreat the Ghosty Spook to help you ask Jehovah.

The Statement of Truth from Allah is clear.

LegendHero:
Tinubu should just carry RPG and armored tank and go and fight the terrorists in Sambisa.

Maybe by then his body language will show he is against insecurity.

Ever since they removed this Professor Usman Yusuf from his NHIS position back then, he’s been going around talking like parrot.

When Buhari was there, he lambasted him. Now Tinubu is here, he is still running riot.

Maybe this particular guy forgot that Tinubu is from a strong majority tribe, you cannot use all this noise making to affect his tenure. Propaganda of him hating the North is very stale as his comrades within that same North constitute the largest percentage of his supporting bloc.

Metrofox:

you're not making any sensible argument or counter as expected, go sleep

Metrofox:


mumu there's something called comparative advantage. Everybody talking rubbish like this shows the very low level of intelligence you possess. when it comes to agriculture let the north focus on it heavily especially in mechanized agric. Leave tech to the silicon Valley of Nigeria and stop making a fool of yourselves, everybody wants to have 36 useless things spread out in 36 states instead of focusing on your areas of strength. How many people wan do the tech for there ?what is the education rate in the north?

Flier:
The problem is,this people does not know anything about IT or coding,they are just going into into fintech with the aim of making profit
Fintech should be regulated in Nigeria,anyone who have no idea of coding should not be allowed to head a fintech company

BreconHills:


Yes.
I saw this coming a few years ago. I invited the Nordic founder of a leisure booking company to come and speak to a group of young founders. What you said above was exactly what he warned them about. Nigerians have hacked fund raising but they have not hacked character and momentum hacking.

Unfortunately we are seeing more and more of the "owambe" "pepper dem" mentality in the founder world. Founders are no longer doing "lean" They are doing optics. In a society where broke shaming is a major catalyst of "success" this is inevitable.

RepoMan007:
Most of these startups have limited understanding how their market changes and its dynamics.
They tend to try building the supporting IT system instead of the processes the IT is supporting.

DeLaRue:
The so-called investors have more money than sense, hence the reason they invest in 'tech' companies that are ultimately doomed to fail.

Many of these so-called tech companies have nothing more than brightly coloured offices, a few computers/laptops and a half-baked, bound-to- fail idea that they wax lyrics around and sell to investors as a viable business.

Many of these founders have no tangible business or life experience - yet, misguided investors will give them money.

It is no surprise over 95% of them fail.

This particular company raised $2m less than a year ago, yet they're already out of business. No doubt the founders took very good care of themselves and left the naive investors licking their wounds.
