PoliticsRe: Igbo Presidency Can Only Be Actualized With APC – Okorocha by remarkD(m): 3:41pm On Jul 22, 2013
haha.. nice. I see such things that are engrained in the psyche of Nigerians as a sign of respect... brought about by some kind of fear... what is called Igbophobia... and the genesis of this, I believe, is after the the Nigerian troops put one leg in the same trousers Biafrans troops had one leg in.
Yes, they used superior amo and air bombardments to win the war, but the respect, the fear - the Igbophobia the rest of Nigerians have is (part of, I will say largely) what leads to such acronymns as you posted...
It was when I was in my SS years in highschool that I became more aware of Nigerian politics, and since I hadn't had a lot of experience with northerners or westerners... I would always ask my bro in NMS how other ethnic groups behaved towards him and other Igbo students...
though he was in his JS years and thus not fully aware of the reason I asked... I was glad to hear that they were warned in their first days/weeks never to (for lack of a better way to put as we discussed in Igbo) be tribalists and stuff... but I got to hear more of such acronymens such as...

Igbos boys are dangerous at night...

Ojukwu must obey...

So again, we may have lost the war... but we knowyour fear of Igbos is the beginning of wisdom...

Peace

He might end up shedding tears (like Buhari) after trying so many times...

Couldn't agree more with Mr. Okija...."if that's the case, then we don't want Igbo presidency" ... roflmao!

On a serious note... when will we see that the ethnicity of the presidency doesn't and will never mean he's the president for his ethnic group alone... are Bayelsans in 9th heaven now? perhaps hey'll have a university (so are 8 other states...) ... and maybe some federal raods there... which are normal things the preside should be doing anyways...

What the Igbos need and have always wanted is... I dont even need to say it again.. a fair and even playing ground... equal opportunity, infrastructure etc... not lopsidedness in areas that affect the lives of the people in SE. If the preside won't make the SE feel at "home" in Nigeria... that's what brings up yearnings for Biafra... a land they can call their own and have their destiny in their hands...

Anywho.. ther isnt anything i'll say that hasn't been said before... as for now... we are behind GEJ, 110%... GEJ ka anyi ga-eso... ma o na adi ndu, ma o na-anwu anwu (Chineke ekwela!) GEJ ka anyi ga-eso!!

Oga Sir:

Listen to me, and listen real good. Abi read this my post to you, and read it wella wella, okay?

I see you posting xyz about Ochendo (I regret the mistake I made of writing "Ochendu" earlier... I mean, seriously? the man na eche ndu? abeg, anyways, not to digress...)

and I comment you for your relentless efforts, even when your threads have 2 posts and 5 views, you don't care, it doestn stop you from opening another thread when you find another successful achievement of T.A. Orji.

But,

1. (and this applies to all Nigerians hailing their Oga they support) Please, and I beg you seriously, only post successful and completed projects that are ready to be enjoyed/utilized by the public.

enough of this news of partnership this partnership that, PPP, QQQ, "set to be ready by" and all that jazz.... we've heard allo this for years, that is old school... this is new school...if I May borrow the words of Rachel Jeantell... we in new school... my generation, and yours too... lol.
but I hope you get my drift... ONLY completed projects do we care about.

2. Anyone can come on here and type pages and pages of stuff... with technology... propaganda flourishes on the internet... but you can also use this to your advantage.

For example, they claim he has not done anything to help the masses...
(since you claim in one of your or someone elses post, that new housing projects have been built? water schemes etc have been constructed... and all that jazz on electricity...

the only evidence that will suffice for all those saying nonsense on the internet is for you to take a video came and go to these places... and take that extra step to ensure that what you are recording, which the eyes of them haters will see... is clear and evident.

Please, I take god beg you, save us all the write-ups, cause as you can see from this thread, they don't believe you.

Let your next thread on nairaland be a video recording... okay? agreed?

I am awaiting that personally... to see that title of the thread that has the word "video" in bracket... and I will use my hard-earned money to push that thread to front page and congratulopia you.

Onye nuru ya gwa nwanne ya (that is all those others saying Orji is working, video record the ish make we see am korokoro... is the next best evidence than coming there with our two legs to see...
patrikobi: Governance in Abia and who made it better

It is true that governance in Abia state has procreated a lot of challenges, consequentially, greatest if the greatest. A few like T.A has comprehended what democratic leadership is and how democracy can be ran to improve development in the wider sense.Leadership starts with nerve-racking passion that seizes you, and will commove the gradation mentality, and this phenomenal apathy varies with leader to leader.
Governor T.A has the mental resources and intellectual gradients which determines how he responds to the challenges and this has yielded much advantages and brought lot of change, either to sustain, transformation, retain growth and uphold the validity of progress Abia state over a period of time.

T.A Orji has examined the backwardness and build up rot which ensues from improper handling of issues that could obviously be traced from the inventive period when Abia state was created . He is a leader that does strive for a balance on its success and continuity,attract development in its justifiable act of genuinely democratic-polity and systematic approach forming basis of a democratic reality.it is true that is widely believed that Abia state can be said to have had a dysfunctional domain of history of downsize performance coming way back as from the time of creation of Abia state. people cast aspersion ,its is an every day norm, and it is always said that Abia leaders, governors, present and past lack transparently most reliable structures, certain operative context and diplomats hinging on knowledge in all their varieties as their ultimate resources and have fallen below the immediate goal of democratization of the electoral process which contradicts what is been expected of them by their followers.

Unlike T.A Orji, some if not all those who were before him were focused on personal interest by employing constricted and artful leadership styles and made no difference. T.A has demonstrated his administration without cynicism, and such an operative system is a necessity to achieving a critical project. He has manifested a firm reliance and his relationship-oriented manner has create the affinity amongst the people of Abia state.

T.A is a leader who is not arrogance, he is neither hostile nor dominance. he is possesses the character of a leader that does not create deep-seated antagonism between his aides and his underlings . T.A ORJI is a leader who is ever ready to endure the trashed heaped on his head, and he must not revile.

The past leaders in Abia had assumed that we do not have any dreams to be fulfilled, they lost track of the rudimentary process which was important to embark on and lead us to our destiny. Propaganda ate deep into their system,selfish interest brought down their values , and the significant of democratic leadership was not met and which made them to fail in their very tenures.

Not too long again before the fruitless tenure of Orji Uzor Kalu collapsed under the weight of repression , dictatorship and autocratic.-he turned the Abia state to a political laboratory and came up with a grandiose political transition that was described as the most non-democratically and non-profitable in of its era which produced no democracy. An administration which created the dullardity of no transformation. OUK's dual tenures were an industry whose business experience held no water in democratic terrain. Obviously he was unable to diffuse the polity in good manner.

But after his eviction from office by constitutional duration, came a man we should support his efforts ,that are spontaneously bringing the desired socio- economic development. T.A Orji made the different and with total consummation we will encourage him to observe continuity and be more clinical in avoidance of uneven disposition of democratic and political influence in order to balance energetic sense of purpose with a concern for the service of others.

Truth is that since you do not want to see any good, you will not see any good! Thereby, making y'all confused and just rambling on and ond on...

You go from saying he has done "nothing" in the state
(as if since he has been governor, he just sits on his hands and the state runs itself... lol).

and then if something is pointed out... you adjust your ramblings again to only this for 6 years blah blah blah"

and then they show you more, you say "these are only for government, masses don't use these buildings, hospitals etc..

and the new song now is that there is nothing for the masses.

For all of you who have not been to Abia State since Ochendo came to power... you have to shut dafuck up, okay?

same for those who are claiming to be Aba residents, just so they can hurl insults and blame the governor... to to the radio set up for you guys if you really live in Aba and want to complain.

There is no state, absolutely no state in this country that you will go to and not see lots of bad roads.

So taking pictures of bad roads in rural areas and uploading them here saying its ABA is pathetic and makes you look so desperate and I kinda feel sorry for you. lol.

Ochendo is improving the life of Abians, it cant all be done at once, he has to start from somewhere.... and if he has started in Umuahia, I see no wrong in that.
I believe ABA as a commercial city got potential... but honestly, its the private sector that can drive that and make it happen while the governor creates the good environment... and I aint buying your propaganda that he's ignored Aba.

Have I said if you have not visited or takena tour of the state you should shut it? Well, shut it, and shut it real tight.

I wonder what the team of journalists that were doing some good governance tour around the country are doing...

You and the other chap mentioning Bush being a C-averaged student are actually not making any point in the context of the argument you are trying to make... this question might line things up for you wella to see...
Was George F. Bush a C student before/when he got accepted to Harvard?

Kapish? lol
birdman: Umm no, its mostly about money. A few get in because of ability and special circumstances, but Yale, Harvard etc are where the elite send their kids. Do I need to remind you of an affable chap that "C"ed his way through Yale and still became president? The whole family going to Harvard is an achievement but that is none of my business. How does this give Iweala the right to plunge us back into debt? Even the bible says the lender will always be the master of the borrower.

are you for sure? an endowment from the father of a not-very-smart fellow can get in?
from what I've seen, endowments of cash means they'll name something (a faculty, building, theatre, etc) after you or the person given the cash... which is more prestige for the endower as his image or name will be out there.... as opposed to a son or daughter that he knows will flunk out or cant meet the minimum admission requirement.

I really do not think even alumni parents can get their kids in without the brain.... its a Nigerian mentality to think its all about money.
if preference is given, it still has to be within given parameters.

e.g. you interview two peeps for a job, and both are equally qualified, for whatever reason, race, acquaintaince etc... you might have a preference for one over the other... kapish?
aaidel: guy go rest jor yes some people get into haravard based on ability but many others get in because they come from very wealthy families that have given millions in endowments to these universities so maybe you should take your own advice further and actually go through more than one google answer before making up your mind

Good luck...

biggirloya2: I have always been a big girl. Bigger than my age that is. I have a very beautiful body and personality but a bit too big for my age. I have always been like this. Now i am 26 but you would swear i am 29 or more. Now i have always attracted older men or bad guys and now i finally thought i had met the one. He is turning 25 in August and i am ( for once in my life) the older one in a relationship. I sometimes hate him coz i get the feeling that because i am fat he wants to treat me like a sugar mommy. but i am only 1 year older than him.I am tired of him hurting me. I get the feeling that he has a younger skinnier lover and me i am just the for sex and do him favours. The dude has never invited me to his home or to meet his people but he knows my home and people like hell. When i dump him he declares his undying love for me but when i decide to stay in the relationship he never has time for me and makes me feel as if he is doing me a favor by spending time with me. Will i ever feel good about myself, will i ever be happy like other people, or am i going to be his dirty secret forever? i am scared of ending things compeletly coz i am a coward and i cant stand to one day see him with a better girl coz i am just a fat worthless ugly girl who looks older than she is.Do you feel my pain?

quote author=remark D]One thing I don't understand is who came up with the idea to start hiding posts.

Sending ethno-religious or racist threads to a different section is understandable...

but isn't it too much to delete those texts even after they have been moved?

Only wish I really had time to run my own forum... 24 hours a day is not enough lol.

That dieing Adekunli thread for example... I mean, it is obvious that at least two (2) girls (from around page 10 or so until the end - page 96!!) on that thread were experiencing their montly biological and hormone changes.... image if on that thread, each page of the thread, Seun places an ad. for... I don't know.. some meds or pills that helps the syndrome... then for over the 90 times that each of those girls clicks on the thread, they wil see that ad. and it inevitably is stored in their (sub) consciousness, while Seun and whoever he pays pockets his advert money.

I really don't think posts in the ethnic thread should be hidden. Really, some people use it to vent their emotions... tis the only outlet they got.

Maybe you should experiment with the idea for a month or so, Seun. Stop hiding posts in the mentioned section, and then see what happens... yeah?

Dear Seun:

I am not sure if you monitor the activities of your mods. its good to give them a free hand to moderate and all, but I suggest that from time to time, you check in and see what they do.

Your mod. OAM4J, on page 147 of this thread, before all of our eyes, blackmailed his fellow mods. (I will explain shortly), on page 148, brought out his biased side and behavior of partiality (will also explain), and I can't think of any other reason why he has refused to (at least) explain himself, after days and pages of trying to hold him accountable for his actions before all members interested in this section/and thread.

(If I may quickly draw a tangent off to our country Nigeria, those put in power feel they are on a high horse where no one "beneath" them should question their actions. They do what they like, favor whom they will, and expect no one question their actions; ignoring those that do.
Its a fellow NL poster that signs off his profile with the quote "Nigerians hold your leaders accountable..." or something to that effect... think its Gbawe... but when there is no system or institution to ensure that when people call out their so-called leaders and try to hold them accountable, taking responsibility for their irresponsibility and so on... when you let your mods. continue misbehaving... there's a saying that "a team is as strong as its weakest link/member"



What did OAM4J do (that I see as an outright blackmail of his fellow mods)?
If you don't want to visit that page (147), the summary is that:
- Desola in her usual way was complaining that a post contained a tribalistic slur;
- she was accusing the other two mods of being tribalistic etc for not deleting the slur
- she was promptly reminded that the post containing the so-called slur was made last year, 2012
Clearly made before a ban was put in effect against those type of words (referred to as slurs I guess)
- as the other two mods decided they were not going to retroactively apply a new law, OAM4J jumps in and goes ... "post deleted, thanks for reporting."

page 148, ACM10 calls him out on it... and shows him an old post that contained another slur (this time an Igboso-called slur) used by Desola...
up until now, that slur is still there.
OAM4J was no where to be found to delete it and say "Post deleted thanks for reporting"
