 Celebrities › Re: Genevieve Nnaji Asked 2010 Amaa Organizers For A Helicopter by rhymz(m): 4:17pm On Jun 18, 2010 |
Many of us here are just commenting out of bad bele and envy. . .You guyz should gist with perspectives abeg. First, where is the show being held? My guess is Bayelsa or one of em militant infested states in both the SS and the SE. . .if she is concerned about her safety, ( which of course is very much justified given the crime antecedents there involving her coleagues) it is her prerogative and should not been seen as being cocky or whatever. Besides, which superstar will not capitalize on their stardom when bargaining? The fact that she is a superstar even makes it more imperative, if I lie ask Maria Carey, she makes it a duty that when she is shooting a music video that a particular designer red wine must be hands on with a wine butler to serve it to her, she even has more ridiculous demands, call her spoilt but that is what comes with being a superstar. If the organizers don't like it, they can kiss her presence goodbye. BTW Sef, how much does it cost to hire a chopper? And they want their award show to stand on thesame footing as the Oscarz when they are not ready to go all the hog to get the right presence there. . .abeg jare make una free the gal jor, afterall, she was not the only A-list actor who did not attend, the others too would have had their own reasons. I wonder why all these #250 softsell magz no pick on those otherz to demonize. . .abeg make we hear sth biko jare! |

| Politics › Anti-bankole Lawmakers Locked Out Of The Press Conference Hall by rhymz(op): 10:36am On Jun 17, 2010 |
ti-Bankole Reps locked out of hall By Festus Owete June 17, 2010 12:25AM print email S There was drama yesterday as reporters covering the House of Representatives were locked out of the press centre where the 10 lawmakers, who have been waging a virulent campaign against the Speaker, had wanted to make public their next line of action with the expiration of the seven day ultimatum given Mr Bankole to resign. The press centre, Room 019, located in the House New Wing, is one of the two used by House correspondents. It is bigger than the other one in the main building, generally called “White House”. The lawmakers had used the venue to address the same reporters on Wednesday last week. They had also scheduled another conference at the venue yesterday. However, the reporters were shocked when they got to the venue and discovered that the two keys to the hall had been changed and they could therefore not go in. The visibly angry reporters discovered, on inquires from some of the technical staff, that the keys were changed last week. They complained bitterly and demanded to know why the change was made without their knowledge. Some of the reporters accused the leadership of the House, headed by the Speaker, Dimeji Bankole of being responsible for the ugly development. According to them, the leadership took the decision to change the keys to prevent the progressive members from using the hall to continue with their campaign. However, a few others defended the House leadership, saying it was possible the principal officers were not informed about the plan to change the keys. Idowu Bakare, the chief press secretary to Mr Bankole, who had also come to witnessed the briefing also put up a strong defence of his boss, who is currently on an official assignment to Russia, insisting that they did not know anything about the change of the keys. It was amid this confusion that Mr Melaye and some members of his group, known as Progressive Members, arrived carrying files and bags containing documents detailing the corruption allegations against Mr Bankole and the House leadership. Expectedly, Mr. Melaye and Mr. West-Idahosa made an issue out of it, saying it was a deliberate design by Mr Bankole to deny journalists the use of the centre, which they said is not the property of the Speaker neither is it that of the principal officers. Mr West-Idahosa, a member from Edo State, attributed the development to Mr Bankole “tyrannical” leadership, which he claimed has been visited on members in the last two and half years. After the lawmakers’ departure, the reporters still waited outside the centre in anticipation that the House spokesperson, Eseme Eyiboh, who had already sent emissaries that he was on his way to react to the allegations against the Speaker and the leadership, would open it and explain why the keys were changed. Blame the security They were, however, disappointed when somebody brought a message from Mr Eyiboh that they should move to Room 426, Media and Public Affairs Committee hall, for the briefing. While some refused to go, other grudgingly went only to discover that he (Eyiboh) had not arrived the hall. At this point, the aggrieved lawmakers also called journalists to Mr Ahwinahwi’s office on the first floor to take the photographs of all the items the House leadership bought, which they said members of the House did not need. According to them, the prices of the items which include torchlight, handsets, television sets, car seat cover, coffee mixers, fan and others were inflated. Just as that was being concluded, the House spokesperson sent another messenger asking the reporters to move to Committee Room 1 of the White House where he would address the journalists. By this time, the reporters were already grumbling and alleging that the delay in Mr Eyiboh’s arrival was a grand design to stop them from reporting the allegations made by the progressive members. Some of the reporters were, however, heard saying that “even if it is 10 pm, we will still file our reports.” When Mr Eyiboh finally appeared, about one hour after the entire confusion began, he apologized profusely to the reporters, saying the change of the key to their press centre was not deliberate and neither was it aimed at embarrassing them. He explained that the Serjeant-at- Arms did not anticipate that journalists would be working while the House was on break. “I take responsibility for that action and apologise to you people and those who wanted to speak to you,” Mr Eyiboh, who was flanked by Mr Bakare and Phil Nyam, the press corps chairman, added.

I ve always suspected that the dominance by the North of the military was systematic and intentional. Go to every barrack in this country, it is porpulated by people from the North. It is common sense to conclude that but for oil the North would have left this false marriage called Nigeria, they obviously do not believe in it hence their their scheme to continue to dominate the force, should there be need to coerce the South to stay or seceed from the Union. Another way to look at it is the politiics at play, which part of the force has always toppled the government? That is right, your guess is like mine. Dominating the military will ensure a smooth co-ordination in the event the North choose to grab power by force should their politicians fall out of favour in the scheme of things in this very unpredictable polity. Jonathan is playing a very risky game, one would have thought that after thesame set of officers nearly usurped his authority during the Yaradua KSA appearance saga that he would have made some reshuffling in the top hierarchy of the force. He probably thinks he would win their loyalty by not altering the status quo, I sorry for him cos it is obvious to every discerning Nigerian that these men owe their allegiance to the politicians in the north, the Hausa-fulanis. It is a waste of time and too much risk giving them time to shift allegiance cos it will never happen. The north may be the least educated section of the country but they are the best when it comes to tacit and unsuspecting scheming that has been systematically planned. |

| Politics › Re: Chris Okotie Joins Presidential Race. . . Again?! by rhymz(m): 3:54pm On Jun 13, 2010 |
Seriously, somebody needs to wake our garrulous Man of God that Politics and Pastoring a Church are two very different things. Okotie has been in contest for the Preshdency since 2003. Does he think Nigerians are fools or what? This is a man who has got no pre-requisite knowledge of politics neither has he ever held any political office before, yet he wants to be president. If charisma, flawless oratory skills and big grammar were all it takes to win, I would be the first to vote him in.Even with his great idea, if there is no feasible political structure and support, his just wasting time, I wonder why his supporters fail to see that. I mean, let us be realistic, apart from Lagos (where he pastors a church) and a his home state, who knows Chris Okotie? Oyakilomeh is even more porpular, yet he overlooks all these factors and continue to decieve himself that God would one day hand him Nigeria on a platter. What a Joke! I watched his 2003 presidential debate, I give it to him, he is a powerful orator. However, most what he was saying and doing were just verbal snafus, preposterous sound bites and impeccable showmanship designed to seek media attention and wow the listening audiencie, several times I found myself lost in verbiage and awe for him. But I know deep down that he is politically naive and most of his arguement were borne out of such. If Mr Okotie wants Nigerians to take him seriously, he had better step up his game and go beyond relying on charisma, oratory and the use of verbose mumbo-jumbo. |
| Politics › Re: Which Other State Should Be Created In Southeast? by rhymz(m): 12:43pm On Jun 13, 2010 |
This writer aptly describes my thoughts on this issue. Here is the excerpt: Since the amalgamation of the Southern and Northern protectorates in 1914 and the subsequent creation of states in Nigeria, the issue of state creation has always being a tenuous and delicate matter. It is gratifying to know that the present National Assembly has listed the creation of more states especially as it has to do with the South East as part of items in the much anticipated constitutional review, Since the issue of an additional state came up, there have been, as usual, several groups from the South East representing one interest or the other clamouring for the proposed additional state to come their way. There is nothing wrong with these agitations only that most of them stem from parochial and narrow perspectives with warped historical facts, Before I proceed further into the heart of the matter, I wish to make it clear that my interest in the quest for an additional state for the South East region is premised on my status as an impartial Nigerian who has always argued for equity, balance and justice for all regions and sectors of the country. When the National Political Reform Conference of former President Olusegun Obasanjo came to an agreement on the need for an additional state for the South East so as to bring it at parity with other zones of the country, it was unique in many respects particularly when seen from the perspective that the issue of another state for the South East, which has five states against six for the other regions, has always being relegated to the periphery of national discourse. Therefore, when delegates to the conference in near-unanimous acclaim agreed to a parity status via another state for the Ibo- speaking South East, it was a significant step that was not missed on political watchers that the full integration of a marginalized people was on the decline almost 35 years after the civil war, Immediately the issue of an additional state was muted, diverse groups took to the trenches to canvass arguments as to why the new proposed state should come their way. Arguments such as intra- cultural affinity (meaning: slight cultural hues within the Ibo race), contiguity and proximity are now being bandied by some promoters of state creation in the South East as the rationale why ‘their own narrow area’ should be considered against the general good of all Igbo, For historical purposes, it should be remembered that the amalgamation of the Southern and Northern Protectorates was done for colonial expediency and the ‘natives’ as the British considered the conquered peoples of the then regions had no say in the matter. . After the amalgamation, the second attempt at ‘state creation’ was done on the over-taken theory of a nation on a tripod-Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa as the major ethnic groups in the country, therefore the country should be politically and administratively split along that line in the historical myopia of the British that the minorities of the Delta, West and North would find a place in the new arrangement. Subsequent attempts at ‘state creation’ all had one reason, politically correct or otherwise, as the driving force. While these attempts were hailed in many quarters, the South East by some unexplained happenings always found itself ‘locked out’ on the equity and justice scale of state creation. . Today, since the issue of an additional state came up, no less than five (5) groups- Adada (Enugu), Orashi (Anambra/Rivers), Aba (Abia), Njaba (Imo/Anambra) and Igboezuo (a small of each of the existing states in the South East) State Creation Movements have emerged in the South East canvassing why they are all best suited to have the proposed state. What are their arguments? . The Adada group in an unheard and laughable proposition argues that they are culturally distinct from the rest of the Igbo. Unbelievable, you say! It is common knowledge that the Igbo share common cultural affinity while not taking away the fact that there might be linguistic variations but they are the closest to ‘wholesomeness’ in all of Nigeria. Therefore, for the so-called Adada proponents to argue on the basis of ‘distinct cultural affinity’ is to entirely miss the point, For the Orashi advocates it is the desire to be with their kith and kin in Rivers and Anambra states that is driving them to demand for a state. The question that needs to be asked of them- which is greater- to ‘be with their kith and kin’ whom they have been inter-marrying for ages or to have a state that is of greater importance to the entire Igbo race? The answer no doubt is obvious, The argument of the proponents of Aba and Njaba states are not too different only that both are claiming large population in their present states, therefore the need for them to be ‘on their own’ as if that were enough criteria in itself for state creation, The most plausible and convincing argument I have seen to date is the agitation for Igboezuo state. The proponents have demonstrated correctness of perspective and have placed the overall interest of the Igbo nation first before any other mundane consideration. What is their argument? To them, Igboezuo is like a union of the five Eastern States; the new heartbeat of the Igbo nation, They are proposing that some existing local governments from the five states of the region be excised to form the new state. From Anambra state, Orumba North and South Local Governments; Enugu will relinquish Awgu and Aninri, while Ebonyi will give up Ivo and Ohaozara Local Governments. Abia will cede Isuikwuato and Umunneochi with Imo producing the bulk of the local governments by giving up Okigwe, Onuimo, Ideato North and South, Isiala Mbano and Ehime Mbano local governments. With these, the new state will be ready to take off with 15 local government areas with headquarters at Okigwe, The new state according to its promoters has in abundance agricultural potentials like rice, root crops, oil palm, cashew, rubber, cocoa as well as rich minerals deposits of kaolin, lead, tin, bentonite and limestone to ensure its viability and sustenance. . Besides the fact that the new Igboezuo State like Abuja at its founding will be in a near-virgin territory, it will give each and every Igbo man a new capital city devoid of the filth and decay that any of the other proposed states represents. There is no gainsaying that the Igbo stands at the threshold of history and should for once show unity of purpose rather than embark on separate and confused agitations that have the tendency to submerge the demand for equity under some other purpose that is at variance with the wishes and aspirations of the peoples of the South East. Any failure to find a common platform will no doubt send the signal to other groups in the country that have shown some understanding with the Igbo cause for an additional state to withdraw their support. And the outcome of such withdrawal is predictable. . |

KnowAll:Agege State, homey for real, are you serious. Create another state from Lagos? What is the size of Lagos in terms of Landmass. In comparison Lagos is an overmatch when we talk about development in both the SS and SE regions, yet you talk about Development without considering the other states that need development than Lagos that already has and is stlii having it giving her pool of enormous resources. That arguement can only hold water after there is proper balancing amongst the regions, especially in the SE. |

Andre Thank you very much for re-asserting that jare. That is exactly my point, people who have a better understanding of their ancestral history don't spend time splitting hair and making statements that wreaks of insecurity or not being sure of your root. It is just like the arguement of some ppl black ppl taking offense when you address them as African Americans, they would rather you called them black Americans but that does not take away the facts that they actually ve their roots in Africa and so are Africans. Until recently, I did not my neighbour was igbo, the ones in the boarder between enugu and benue, the wife was clearly benue but the husband I was not sure. Not until he had boy child and named him chukwuemeka, I asked him and he told me he was igbo, I did not believe until I heard him one speak his local dialect to a relation did not sound like your normal anambra or imo states igbo but it had many igbo elements in it.

Chinenye Your question seem to me like you are splitting hair, trying to raise issues where there are none. How is culture and Identity different, what does that even mean? Culture is actually identity. Arts, customs, traditions, beliefs and language are all shared identity of a culture. Now tell me, do these so-called delta or whatever igbos have any proof of a different culture and Identity different from igbos in the far east? Are you trying to tell me that if Delta state was in the east, the issues Delta igbo will arise? What exactly is the difference btw an Anambra igbo and an Imo Igbo? Or you think they are not different because the two states are in the SE and predominantly igbo? Is this a case of brainwashing? So let me understand, if after 50yrz igbos in Lagos undergo some kind of evolution and speak a slightly different igbo, and have other cultural influence in the west incoporated into their main culture, they become less of igbos, or it will be wrong to see them as igbos? Chinenye let us stop this cat and rat game, U and I know the feelings of inadequacy in the ppl that make such claims. Give us proof that you are different not some statement of convenience that lacks depth and understanding. 1 Like |

Why do women attach emotions when they make decisions. Imagine all the female commentators jumping to conclusions and writing long epistles of what the woman did which in fact does not have any direct bearing on the man's business, chances are that she married him because of his wealth. Let us asume her allegations are true, the question here is, is polygamy against the law? Whether the man chooses to marry another woman, it is his prerogative as an African man, last time I checked, it is not against the law. Besides, the woman's demands are obscene, 10billion Naira and 300k child support. Looks more like an angry woman that is out to destroy her husband for dumping her. She can be sure she is not going to get that kinda money, if I were the man myself, I will play dirty since obviously that is all she is about. I mean if she wants compensation that is alright but to go that mile, geeeze, she did not contribute in anyway to the business and she is making dat kinda demand. . . Ukwu biwa kawa ya there. . Na so dem dey take become billionaire?? . . .she should be ready to go without a dime! Damn Gold digger that sees her husband as a meal thicket to eldorado. . Scheeew |

Eldee You know there is a big difference between what you ve in the west and what is obtainable here. I agree our culture is a bit too chauvinistic and our law tends to support that but look at the effect, stronger families with properly raised kids. Unlike the very feministic western culture and legal system that allows bimbos scoop up a man's entire savings in the event of divorce or the high rate of single parent upbringing with kids who are so morally bankrupt and weird. . . Seriously if any of us needs to copy, I think the West needs more of our virtues in this regard than we do them |

Inferiority Complex because she fears that she might not be able to prove her igboness before other igbo due to her lack of knowledge of her history hence the easy escape route of claiming to be a different igbo or non-igbo to cover up her lack. If you say you are not igbo, then give us the historical antecedent rather than bandy ordinary words not based on history. 1 Like |
