chidiokay:Damn !!! lol 😂 |
WTF are you borrowing ? What new revenue are you using to pay back the interest ? Crap !!! Enough already |
ogaemma:I think he did when he said no Victor no Vanquished after the war. Both parties were aggrieved. When will I see my fellow ibo, Hausa or Yoruba and not see a Nigerian first. ? It’s been 50 years !!!!! Let’s dialogue cuz after every war we still need to sit and talk. This mistrust of ibo need to stop 🛑 |
iwaeda:This is accurate as I can corroborate with another article published almost 15 years ago. I’ve got 3 questions to ask IBB 1. What role/s did Abiola play in coups. 2. Who killed Dele Giwa. 3. Why was Manman Vatsa shot for treason? |
Odingo1:“ I don’t cook , I don’t clean “ After you threaten to let her go …. “ yes I do the cleaning , yes I do cooking “ That said - these are signs of a woman who doesn’t see sex or intimacy as more than just procreation and to satisfy your needs. I bet she doesn’t hold hands in public or allow you to handle her breasts. Most of these girls are religious and have very low body count. They are just married so they are not alone in life and have a “ spiritual cover “. You mentioned “ taboo “ and that “ marriage before sex is necessary “ support my points. You have to look for supporting passages to aid your discussion on the topic . In addition you have to meet her half way . Your worldly experience vs her rookie inexperience. You have to let go of demanding intimacy and she perhaps restriction on not changing Styles. Try and make her see that within the confides of a relationship she isn’t a slut but a queen and these are acts that people who love each other indulge in . BOL |
Nemere2020:Salah ain’t leaving Liverpool . So reporting needs to be updated. Both Salah and Van dirk have signed but are waiting on TAA before making an announcement. That said - they better build a statue for the dude outside of the stadium . |
Odingo1:Jokes apart … I can understand the no kissing but the insistence on not interesting in changing styles is something else. You have talk with her that you could agree to the no kissing if she agrees to the changing of styles . You’ll meet her half way . |
YouAreNobody:Maintain existing infrastructure. We don’t have a culture of maintainance - demolish and build build and build |
For someone who lives in England - That was a dumb comment. That said, he shares the comments with a lot of Managers including Pep who doesnt have a single African for fear of loosing them in January and Feb during the event. We need to package the event well. Get our players to be more engaged and create rivalries. Invite the winners of Copa America to play Euro Cup, Afcon and Asia Cup winners and call it SuperCup or something. |
omooba969:But this has creeped into our generation as well. Not sure the way forward unless there is some national unity where we apologize for the I’ll we done to ourselves and see how we can have some kind of reconciliation and ruling agreement President / leader of senate and deputy president. |
Hmm - So how do we move on from this … I can understand why the 1966 coup was considered Igbo masterminded. Consider the ratio of those who plottered, those that were killed and those that were saved Major General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi, Nigeria’s first military head of state, was brutally assassinated on July 29, 1966, during the counter-coup led by Northern officers. His killing was part of a larger retaliation for the January 15, 1966 coup, which was perceived as an Igbo-dominated plot. How Aguiyi-Ironsi Was Killed 1. The Coup Begins • On the night of July 28–29, 1966, Northern military officers—led by Lt. Col. Murtala Mohammed, Major Theophilus Danjuma, and Capt. Joe Garba—launched a coup against Aguiyi-Ironsi’s government. • The coup plotters were angry that the Igbo officers behind the January 1966 coup had not been punished, and they believed that Ironsi was protecting them. • They wanted to avenge the killings of Northern leaders and remove what they saw as Igbo dominance in the government. 2. Kidnapping of Aguiyi-Ironsi and Fajuyi • On the morning of July 29, 1966, Aguiyi-Ironsi was in Ibadan, staying at the Government House with Lt. Col. Adekunle Fajuyi, the military governor of the Western Region. • Northern soldiers, led by Major Theophilus Danjuma, stormed the Government House and arrested both Aguiyi-Ironsi and Fajuyi. • Aguiyi-Ironsi was beaten and interrogated, with the coup plotters demanding to know details about the January coup and why he didn’t punish the Igbo officers involved. 3. Torture and Execution • Aguiyi-Ironsi and Fajuyi were taken to a secluded area, believed to be near Lalupon, Ibadan. • They were tortured for hours, possibly with bayonets and gun butts. • Both men were eventually executed by gunfire, and some reports suggest their bodies were dumped in a forest. 4. Aftermath • The coup plotters installed Lt. Col. Yakubu Gowon as the new Head of State, sidelining Igbo officers from power. • The mass killings of Igbos escalated across Northern Nigeria, leading to tensions that eventually resulted in the Nigerian Civil War (1967–1970). Significance of His Death • Ethnic tensions worsened: Many Igbos saw his assassination as an attack on their people, reinforcing their belief that they were no longer safe in Nigeria. • Led to Biafra’s secession: The killings of Igbos in the North after Ironsi’s death contributed to Eastern Nigeria’s decision to declare the Republic of Biafra in 1967, which led to war. • Shift in power: The military leadership permanently shifted to the Northern-dominated elite, with Yakubu Gowon ruling for the next nine years (1966–1975). Aguiyi-Ironsi’s death remains a tragic and pivotal moment in Nigerian history, marking the deepening of the ethnic divide that still influences the country today. 1966 out of 6 main plotters 4 were Igbo and 2 Yoruba The following were killed: • Ahmadu Bello (Hausa-Fulani) – • Tafawa Balewa (Hausa-Fulani) – • Samuel Akintola (Yoruba) – • Brigadier Zakariya Maimalari (Hausa-Fulani) • Colonel Kur Mohammed (Hausa-Fulani) However, Nnamdi Azikiwe (President, Igbo) and Michael Okpara (Premier of the Eastern Region, Igbo) were not harmed. Without being biased you can see why it is perceived as such. However, Since civil war has been fought won and lost . Why can’t we move on ?? How do we heal and move on ? |
Sirheny007:So that he is spared death and destruction upon his family. He is not white who usually want to die with a clear conscience. Ask him who killed Dele Giwa ? |
Bobloco:Dude if you don’t know who killed Dele Giwa . I cannot believe you’d remember an event almost 60 years ago . |
Yourprick:It’s too late my friend !!! This should have been death with 32 years ago once we established whatever modicum of democracy we have now. Who killed Dele Giwa ?? and on whose orders ? |
Letting him would be their greatest mistake ever. Without him who the heck knew who they were ? You don’t roll one of your best players under the bus. |
VanuatuWycombe:Who is funding it ? |
My concerns are security on the train and on the way. Back up plan. Backup to backup plan. |
How many people are you inviting ? Cost of hall Cost of meals Cost of drinks DJ /Music Misc 250k Clothes Put some figures and you’ll get approximate values. |
Whatever happened is in the past and should stay that way. As you mentioned , you all broke it off amicably with no issues. So your coming together would be more of a…. Holy smokes long time bla bla bla . We talking about 14 years here. No sweat! If your finance doesn’t want to continue then her loss. |
InstanetTV:I agree but ….Like he cares !!!! He has been ruling like a dictator issuing executive orders. If Zelinsky wouldn’t accept the deal then he can kiss the US grants and loans goodbye. I foresee that The two provinces that Russia has taken will act as a demilitarized zone with Europe troops . A buffer between both countries . So it will not be given back nor will it be in Ukraine hands. Not sure what will happen to Crimea. |
Chinedu00Z:Just remember that not everyone who goes to school will make it / big . Ask yourself perhaps a trade school would suffice. Learn mechanic or barber or hair salon , construction and be honest and good . And you’d be able to put food on your table . |
SeeWahala:I admire him for trying but he should reach out to a Christian to assist him the understanding of those passages! |
Mariangeles:Good grief what sumptuous meals |
GeneralPula:Nope believe he could fly |
AbuTwins:I am usually against mob action but this has no defence . This is pure wickedness. The devil isn’t even that wicked compared to what she did. |
Oluwashina72:I don’t see what the issue is ? Do you love her , do you see a future together. Don’t knock her down because she has a child who could turn out to become an amazing successful fellow with the right guidance and support . The child can be kept with her mum for a while and talk about your future together. It’s not for everyone if you are not open minded then perhaps you let her know how you feel and move on . |
irumole1975:Of course …. I got mine yesterday using only my bicycle License. |
Dude - You are not the father ! If she brings proof that you will need to step up ! Why a sexually active lady would “ forget “ to take the day after pill is mind boggling. Why you as a dude is int ready wouldn’t use a condom is crazzy |
Lacks self esteem and wouldnt be my daughter. The dude is even an idiot to allow it . He should " lift her up" and not be privy to such nonsense. Anyways to everyone their own. Thats her fetish!! Whatever a couple decide to do in their relationship in the confides of their relationship . I used to have a Chinese g/f who would do this, It was creeper and sent shivers down my spine. Ughhh !!! |
