EasternActivist:
What concerns this tribalistic Edo man with delta people...?

Because Asaba guys said they're Igbos, nothing more
They've bn trying to bully those guys to deny that they exist but their voice got even louder hence their oppressors are frustrated. Such impetus!!!

Kudos to Ugomba, Ikechu1278 and the rest of you guys. The slayers of of Spanishkid Tonyebarcanista and the likes

TonyeBarcanista:
It is only in Delta state that it's capital city is less viable, less popular, less active and no historic backing like other towns/cities other than to satisfy the wish of a woman(Maryam). Before independence, Warri was the capital of Delta province. Warri is the city that represents present day Delta state just as PH is to Rivers and Ibadan is to Oyo state. Warri deserves to be the seat of power! Even Israel had to move to their capital to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv.

That said, for the sake of collective peace and unity, the capital should remain in Asaba. The deed has already been done. Beside, Asaba could have been chosen because as at then the 3 inhabitants of Warri were after their own heads due to disagreement.

Why always speaking from both sides of the mouth?
Here you're talking about history, but u go about nl attacking anyone that doesn't support amalgamation status to please Lord Luggard.
Your hypocrisy is at all time high. The hatred you have Igbos keep making u score 'own' goals daily

ahaz:
my fellow Niger deltans especially tony barcanista and co,...are you now convinced that the Igbo's are our enemy? just asking o!

If Igbos are not their problem, who is?

fastestfinger:
hahahahahaha...

I suppose he forgot he was a patriot. I thought he was a detribalized nigerian?

Or is it that Aisha's rice is no longer palatable?

I tire o

fastestfinger:
lol...

Maybe barcanista doesn't want to be a patriot anymore.

Barca just scored an own goal with this thread

Less than 48hours after creating this thread, op has scored an own goal by creating that Amechi maritime thread.

Imagine calling Amechi unpatriotic

Look who is here!!!
I was just thinking about u

TonyeBarcanista:
“We are not going ahead with the university project proposed by NIMASA because we have an institution in Oron, we have Nigeria Institute of Transport Technology, Zaria, and we have the Nigerian College of Aviation in Zaria which we could upgrade to a University status and NIMASA is proposing to build a new one"(Hon Rotimi Amaechi)

The above were the words of the minister of Transportation, Rotimi Chibike Amaechi proposing to cancel the proposed Nigeria Maritime University project in Warri, Delta state. This project when completed will be the first and only maritime degree awarding institution in Nigeria. This project has the prospect of attracting students all over Nigeria and outside as the first choice maritime institution in Nigeria. The prospect of development that this project will attract to the people of Warri, Delta state and Niger Delta region cannot be over-emphasized.

Alas, the project that was birthed by a President from the Niger Delta region is proposed to be cancelled by a minister from the same Niger Delta region. What justification?

NMU(Warri) Not A Substitute
Though Amaechi tried to justify his position with mentions of similar institutions across Nigeria; Maritime Academy(NMA), Oron, Akwa Ibom state; Institute of Transport Technology(NITT), Zaria, Kaduna state; and College of Aviation Technology(NCAT), Zaria, Kaduna state, Amaechi failed to justify how the existence of these aforementioned institutions nullifies the need for NMU when non of the institutions are degree awarding.

For those that may not be aware, neither the NITT(Zaria), NCAT(Zaria), NMA(Oron) nor the proposed NMU(Warri) share the same scope. While NIIT deals completely with subjects and trainings relating to Transport Technology and studies, the NCAT(Zaria) deals completely with aviation matters, the Maritime Academy(Oron) has the scope of training personnel already in maritime sector and offers diploma programs to those interested in having career the sector, while the Proposed NMU(Warri) is aimed at preparing and training professionals and experts in the Maritime. The proposed NMU(Warri) has nothing to do with Aviation, which NCAT is meant to address nor the that of NITT, neither is it to take the functions of NMA(Oron) to award diplomas. In fact, the need for professionalism in maritime training has seen students moved to Regional Maritime University in Accra, Ghana to obtain maritime degrees. It is also on record that in 2009, the federal government made arrangement with Academy of Maritime Education and Training in India to train seafarers in maritime related degrees and boycotted NMA(Oron) because it could not serve the need.

If we consider all these, wouldn't it be inappropriate for Amaechi to question the need for the project?

Addressing The Amaechi Questions:
During Amaechi's speech, he asked some questions that I believe should be answered. The questions in italics were asked by Amaechi.
Who will attend the University?
Is it not obvious that the university when come to operation will provide opportunities to Nigerians that seek professionalism in the Maritime sector? Is it not to our advantage that instead of people going abroad to India, Ghana etc to study for maritime degree, Nigerians will rather take to study at home for the program?

How many parent will allow their children to go to such place where it propose to site the University?

Last time I checked, Warri is not a war-torn area neither is it in the control of terrorist. If people can live/work in Warri Refining and Petrochemical company without harm, if people can work in oil companies and servicing companies in Warri, what then is the argument of Amaechi?

What is the aim of the University that we cannot achieve in Oron where they have all the necessary infrastructure.

This is very clear... It will amount to absurdity for one to think that a maritime degree awarding institution is meant to serve same purpose as non-degree awarding institution. In fact, University of Lagos was established despite the presence of Yaba College Technology, both in Akoka because the purpose and scope of both are different. Similarly, as much as we need a maritime university, it doesn't mean that we should erode maritime academy(Oron) that serves a different purpose. In fact, it is not possible of Oron(if upgraded to university) to be awarding diplomas and degrees at the same time. No serious institution does such. Hence, Oron as a training center cannot substitute the need of NMU(Warri).

Niger Delta Leaders are Niger Delta Problems:
The NITT(Zaria) was established by the Babangida(Niger state) regime in 1986, the NCAT(Zaria) was established in 1964 under the government of Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa(Bauchi state), the NMA(Oron) was established by General Olusegun Obasanjo(Ogun state) regime in 1979 and strengthened by President Shehu Shagari administration, but our own people seem not to be interested in NMU. While one group was busy inflating contract for land purchase, another person is proposing to stop it altogether. Will a Yorubaman act like that if it was to be cited in Ibadan or Osogbo? Will a Fulaniman act in such manner if it were to be in Gusau or Sokoto? We complain of "marginalisation" but we seem to be our own oppressors. NDDC was given to us by Obasanjo(Yoruba), LNG by Abacha(Kano), 13% by Abacha, Min of ND Affairs(Yar'adua), and Amnesty(Yar'adua). What significant thing have we benefitted from our own people?

It is my humble appeal to President Muhammadu Buhari to ignore the unpatriotic position of Amaechi, which is capable of causing ethnic tension in the region. I'm optimistic that his government will go-ahead with the proposed NMU, Warri.





May God Bless Us All and Bless Nigeria

I beg your pardon sir
Amechi is only being a patriotic Nigerian.
Thanks

ogasnow:
Don't worry about Yoruba, they don't have customary government. This is about your brothers and the instructions of your CUSTOMARY GOVERNMENT. Go and obey your customary government and donate something so that your brothers can be resettled.

You may want to ensure that donations are used for the said purpose and that your kin are resettled properly in a place and manner that removes the threat of future eviction.

Why won't I be worried about my Yoruba brothers
Are we not one Nigeria again?

Oh well, OPC can as well mobilize too to resettle the Yorubas that were affected.

HiddenShadow:
US please our wailing form is finished. Thank you for partying with us after shouting CHANGE

I was about to announce that the wailers form is finished but you beat me to it.

Spybradd:
gej again,of cos.
Apc=ruling/opposition/confused party


oya my credit

Lmao

Let's see who/what they blame next before we know the winner(s)

Metropilla:
Justice Lateefa Okunnu of the Lagos State High Court, sitting in Ikeja has convicted and sentenced an undergraduate of Kuala Lumpur Metropolitan University, Malaysia: Hope Olusegun Aroke to twenty-four years imprisonment for his involvement in an internet scam that fetched him Four Thousand riaait (N25,000,000).
http://www.metropillar.com/2016/01/courtjails-malaysia-based-undergraduate.html

If u base your research on nl Yorubas, u'll think there are no Yorubas in Malaysia

Bigprozzie:
Spare me the story

You are well known IPOB youth

Any new busting projects since you have a lot of time on your idle hands

Ipob youth

My dear if I still come across any Yoruba on nl claiming Igbo just to be mischievous and cause disunity among brothers here on nl, I'll continue to bust them like I've done in my threads. We should all be true to our origin and not claiming Igbo when you're Yoruba or vice versa. Once u start claiming another man's origin, be sure u do it well cos once I see two contradicting comments about your origin , I'll surely point it out. And if you're one of the people I've called out before, I'm sorry. Just don't do again
Back to topic: Demanding accountability from one's govt must now be equated to IPOB.
I also heard Cardinal Okogie is iPod too



However if calling me IPOB and derailing this thread makes you feel better about the state of our economy , I don't want to spoil your fun sweetheart

As the incompetence of the All Progressives Congress becomes more glaring by the day chieftains of the party have taken turns to heap blame on everyone except themselves. 

Even though 85% of their party membership is drawn from the PDP either old or New these clowns in government seem to have forgotten that they are no more in the opposition but the Government in power and must be seen to be doing all they can to make Life more meaningful for Nigerians. 



At the last count the list of those APC and their chieftains blame for their inability to get the Ship of State moving has swelled even a simple budget was a problem for a group that prides itself as a progressive party. Her is the list with links Happy Viewing!!!!!



1. God: Number one their  List is God himself, the King of Heaven himself was the target of the APC National chairman who blamed the Monarch of Heaven for dwindling oil price. Forgetting that it  was magician from Daura and not Jehovah God   who promised  to stabilise global Crude price 

http://pulse.ng/politics/oyegun-god-is-responsible-for-nigeria-s-economic-troubles-apc-chairman-says-id4588903.html




2. GEJ: only God separate this man from the lips of APC members and Buhari fanatics,  Just Like Reno Omokri Tweeted Lai Mohammed's  daily devotion begins with a Capsule of BlamoGEJ 500mg start 

List of Sins



A. Fuel Scarcity : Seven months. After leaving office Lai Mohammed was still blaming GEJ for dry pumps at filling stations. 

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/12/jonathan-created-ongoing-fuel-scarcity-lai-mohammed/



B. Forty Naira Fuel Price : Tam David West and his clique who gave us a Million reasons while Fuel should sell at 40 per litre when crude price  was above $100 are also blaming GEJ for their Inability to reason properly 

https://www.naij.com/427076-buhari-never-promised-n40-pump-fuel-price-i-did-david-west.html

C: Lassa Fever : it's a shame that Hundreds of Nigerians are being killed by rats daily,  When Ebola came to Nigerian via Patrick Sawyer the response from Team GEJ was swift, Our current Minister of health blames GEJ for his inability to  respond an epidemic that has spread to over 17 states and counting

http://www.theheraldng.com/jonathan-caused-lassa-fever-health-minister/



D. Cabinet : it took forever for GMB to form a simple cabinet he could have named at Eagle square he blames GEJ for that too may be the  Handover notes were in German.

http://www.blueprint.ng/2015/11/17/cabinet-buhari-blames-delay-on-jonathan/

E. Budget this People blamed GEJ Was wasting state resources on all manner of frivolities.
They blame GEJ for empty yet they are spending almost twice what they accused's GEJ of spending on feeding ghosts in the villa yet they still blame Jonathan 

http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/195903-buhari-to-spend-more-than-jonathan-on-presidential-villa-to-spend-less-on-food.html


F Naira Crash Dollar rise :

Buhari had promised to strengthen the Naira during the Campaigns, Ngige and others joined in lambasting GEJ, Today the Naira has broken several negative records under the  Daura General trading at #305 the worst in our country's history.  

http://www..ng/2015/12/14/lai-mohammed-says-nigerians-should-blame-jonathans-government-for-bad-economy/

A mixture of fossilised monetary policies and archaic measures brought us to this pitiable state yet these guy's wants us to Blame GEJ when you have somebody like Amaechi who fought GEJ and Aunty Ngozi for daring to save for the rainy day  the 1 BILLION dollars  in the SWF would not have been there for Buhari had GEJ listened to Amaechi. 

https://www.naij.com/699200-apc-blames-goodluck-jonathan-bad-economy-fall-naira-photos.html

G. Inability to Fulfill #5000 pledge/ Feeding for School Children 

While they were in Pluto making these promises to Nigerians before the elections  they never consulted Jona, fulfil promise now they are shifting goal post, it's a shame  that they defrauded our children too 

http://www.post-nigeria.com/apc-blames-jonathan-for-n5-000-pledge/


IBB and SAP 

It was the turn of one of our grand fathers to heap the blame, the Minister of Agriculture Chief Audu Ogbeh  instead of riding on the successes of Adeshina In revamping Agriculture he is currently blaming IBB and SAP for his inability to commence anything meaningful in that ministry

http://www.channelstv.com/2016/01/24/agric-minister-blames-nigerias-poor-economy-on-sap/


State Governors 

As rats continue to kill Nigerians the Buhari Administration is blaming state government for his inability to rise up to the occasion this time he blames state 

http://www.punchng.com/lassa-fever-fg-blames-states-over-silence/


We all want Nigeria to make progress, APC must stop these games and get to work one year has already been spent globetrotting and achieving nothing the APC must start walking the talk before its too late 

God Bless Nigeria

Correctly Predict the next blamee and win a N500 glo recharge card.

Pls stay on topic, Nigerians are looking for change. And I don't have enough wailers form to accommodate all. That's the koko right now

tuale4u:
By May 2018, d change will be clear and positive

Wayo
First you said two months is too small, we should give you 6months, after 6months, you said we'll start to see change by the time they do their own budget. No problem
When you first saw the budget, you defended it and said we should expect change in 2016. Now that you've seen that the long awaited budget has started disappearing and appearing, you've moved it to 2018


My brother I no envy you at all, defending APC and their promises no be moi moi
