I dont think where we are today (the success recorded) in our fight against corruption is too bad. I think we are too impatient and everything thing about us must be the usual 'fire brigade' approach.
What I mean is not tolorating corruption, but in realizing that steadily and purposefully, we can overcome or reduce corruption to the bearest minimum in this country but that can not be achieved in a day.

If we'll be honest with ourselves, we'll agree that it took almost all of our years of existence to nurture this monster and killing it won't take - in my opinion - even two successive administrations. Corruption has become almost normal to us and we see that everywhere everyday.

Having said that, like the VP said; “I don’t think that the people, especially the civil society have shown enough outrage that one expects in order to consistently beam searchlight on the perpetrators...where are the campaigns, we should be able to point out these persons so that they will not be able to spend these monies."

Take the recent Kachikwu/Baru saga for instance. People are already taking sides. As a people, if we, irrespective of where we come from, after waiting and nothing comes out of this matter, throng the streets of our major cities demanding for justice, things will definitely change.

Is that how Nigeria will get better, for good, decent, capable people to stay out of government?

I wonder o!

Fyi0:
Yes you really offended me

Sorry about that. I didn't really mean to hurt. Ndo o

Yyeske:
That was exactly my problem with Ohanaeze, they allowed all to fester and kept quiet all along till now and trying to appear relevant now

You might be right but look at it this way.
The method adopted by Kanu may have been bad but the agitation is/was not completely bad.

Observing from the sidelines, I can confidently say nobody or group truly cares about the welfare of the Igbos like the Onia led Ohanaeze.
Their mild condemnation of IPOB but subtle support for the agitation was purposeful and has some political benefits to the eastern region, just that our youths (as expected though) can't see what the elders are seeing and therefore are misbahaving and insulting their elders.

Believe me, if Ohaneze will completely take advantage of the positive side of the agitation, with the support of the youths (that is if they wake up), subsequent administration will never subline the region again.

Ohaneze should make further moves to;

- sensitise, reorientate and incorporate the youths fully of/in the political rebirth of the region.

- douse the tension caused by the activities of IPOB both within and outside the region through peaceful and friendly meeting (a sort of, wine and dine as we rob minds).

- move closer to the corridors of power through pressure, negotiations and involvement.

Our elders are wise!

Fyi0:
Shut up there!
What has Trump done to those that continually insult and abuse him. What has the American government done to the KKK, neo-nazis, et al.
Are China and N Korea democratic countries? Disgusting!

I am sorry bro. I don't normally respond to comments with insults and abuses.

Sorry if I offended you.

agbangam:
we all need to becareful wit d kind of freedom of speech we are demanding for, some so call freedom of speech can cause chaos just like it did in Rewadan. Those so called politicians have means to leave d country wen it burns just like Syria while d ordinary citizens becomes d victims of d stuupid freedom of speech.
U guys need to watch documentaries on Syria war, too much freedom of everything can lead to untold hardship

Don't mind (some) Nigerians. the only people that want to drive forward on reverse gear. We want a decent society but without decency and discipline in our actions.

If China, North Korea achieve any great feat, we will be quick to compare and condemn Nigeria but in those countries, Government fully own and regulated internet facilities, even e-mails are checked.

There is no country that allows absolute freedom of (press) information and even speech, not even the pretentious US.

vedaxcool:
Info fm na agbero station. He should have the decency to tell us what context he made such assertion.

The way Nigerians react to everything in an emotional way surprises me.
Are we saying anybody should just go on air and say anything because we are in a democracy?

We all watch and listen to foreign media outfits. Even certain words are not allowed on air.

Nigeria mata tire me sha

freshboi88:
Nigerians must unite and get the president to take action on this accusation

This is how a reasonable Nigerian should think and talk.

If I talk now, dem go say I talk.

I wonder why people will always choose and follow emotions over reason. According to him; "This is a Northern agenda to cleanse the entire igbos."
How can the North cleanse the 'entire' igbos? Are we that weak and vulnerable?

What exactly is the agenda of the north? To islamize or to cleanse?

These Northerners must be gods in themselves and over others.

Barr. Ify, I think you know what you are doing but it's a dangerous game you are playing.

What bothers me most is that we Africans believe the whites are racist, exploiters, enslavers etc but always look up and run to them for help/support. Almost like we can't survive without them.

They may be ahead of us in some areas of life and that's not because they are superior but because they have existed as nations/countries many years before us, keep improving on their 'little' beginnings (in additions their exploitations).

Unfortunately, the President does not have the powers to grant your demands.

Restructure! Restructure!! Just imagine these same people being Governor(s) general of the various regions.

tobiasbeecher:
Really should you be asking me that? Was I among the army that invaded his house? Anything would have happened to him during the unlawful army invasion. He might have been killed or captured by the army, hence his lawyer is asking the army to produce him. So you should be asking the army that invaded his house this question not me. If the army invade your house and started started shooting and killed some people and thereafter, you started looking for your brother who would you ask about the whereabouts of your brother? Your answer to this question may give you a clue of the answer to your question.

I like smart people! Thank God you didn't answer the question.

But as per "if the army invade your house and started started shooting and killed some people and thereafter, you started looking for your brother who would you ask about the whereabouts of your brother?"

That's what I am saying. Shouldn't it be NK's immediate family's place to mourn or ask for the whereabouts of their son?

Has Nk's brother openly declared his brother might be dead or missing?

unohbethel:
the real answer is that every answer for now is an hypothesis..
no body know for sure where where kanu is now because before the soldiers came to aba, kanu was seen in public..even that day the army killed 3 people on sunday sept 11..

but seeing that the army invaded his fathers compound and killed even his dog, evidence suggest that he may av been taken by the army either killed or imprisoned..

the army said that they didnt evade their compound, but we av seen pictures and videos that suggest otherwise...so we know the army is lieing about the invasion..

also the army said that they are not with kanu...but seeing that they lied in the first case, its hard believing them now..

so in all, there is a 50% chance that the army is with kanu..

Alright. Till tomorrow.

tobiasbeecher:
What question?

Do you believe NK is dead or in NA's custody?

tobiasbeecher:
If you cannot tell if the army entered his house why are you now disputing his lawyer that said the army did? Didn't you see the video of the invasion? Don't you think that anything might have happened during the army invasion? Do you think the army will come and say they killed him or captured him if they did? Don't you know they will always deny it? Please, let us use our senses always and avoid sentiment guiding our opinion. As far as I know, Nnamdi Kanu's lawyer has every right to demand for the whereabouts of his client as a result of the army invasion.

Alright. Agreed. Can you now answer my question?

decasey:
which efcc

The one we have in Nigeria

starstunna1313:
I stand to be corrected... I read somewhere he had already done it.. In fact am even tired of the whole story.. The whole system NA,FG,NK and Judiciary are too corrupt for my liking. Don't know who to believe.. My main point is they should settle all this lawfully. I don't want to wake up one day hearing the sounds of bombs up-and-down around my house in the name of civil war.. I still wanna live long

Me too

And I pray you live up to 180...no, 200 years

I can't wait to see what the NASS and EFCC will do about this should the Presidency look the other way.

starstunna1313:
To be sincere.. I don't know.. Alive or Dead won't put money in my pocket or food on my table especially when I am not any of his relations, NA or FG... Besides I did not really digest that their saga

I like the sincerity.

Once again, NK has a right to a lawyer and Ify also has a duty to defend his client. But like those guys said, I think he might end up complicating the whole issue by claiming NK is missing or dead.

If Nk's right had been breached and his property destroyed, Ify should sue the FG for remedies and not to play this game.

gidgiddy:
I dont think you get the real crux of the matter here. The issue here is, are the Army constitutionally empowered to invade anyones home? Does the Army have the right,under the law to go and look for Kanu? Let me ask it in another way, does the Nigerian Airforce have a right to invade Kanu's residence?

This is not even about what happend during or after the invasion of Kanu's house but wether the invasion its self is even legal in the first place.

The Army's position is that they never came anywhere near Kanu's house yet there are videos on youtube of them amassing next to Kanu's house.

What the Nigerian government wants us all to believe is that Kanu dressed up some men in military uniforms, gave them machine guns abd sent them to shoot up his community, his house, his cousin, his dog and kill several people all in a bid to avoid court where half of his charges have already been thrown out and hearing on the other half of the case is even yet to begin.

I think that people should start asking important questions because if the federal government cannot abide by its own laws then Nigerians have a much bigger problem than Nnamdi Kanu

Thank you.

Now are you saying the real crux of the matter is the legality/illegility of the operation python dance II declared by the NA and not whether Nk is dead or in their custody?

my point was he or IPOB accusing/sueing the NA for NK's whereabouts.

Now tell me, do you believe NK is dead or in NA's custody?

[quote author=sepalapen post=61097910][/quote]Target?

Well, I can't say the NA entered Kanu's house or not. But my point was he or IPOB accusing/sueing the NA to for NK's whereabouts.

Now tell me, do you believe NK is dead or in NA's custody?

starstunna1313:
Oga you are drifting off from the headline.. Whether IPOB is a terrorist group or not.. Whether NA / FG are right or wrong.. The problem is that how can a lawyers who spent 5 yrs in the university and another extra one in law school wake up one morning and starting saying rubbish.. In a lawyers job descriptions am sure they know that any body have a right to a lawyer who is paid to represent his/her client till the person is proved guilty.. Do that also make the lawyer guilty?.. If na so.. All those politicians found guilty in any way by the Nigerian Judiciary System should face the punishment of their crimes with the lawyer(s)..

Before you start jumping to ur I too know plenty things.. Read the story well.. Ifeanyi Ejiofor is the topic not Nnamdi Kanu

NK has the right to a lawyer and Ifeanyi Ejiofor, defending his client against any form of injustice is right. But, my point was he or IPOB accusing/sueing the NA for NK's whereabouts.

Now tell me, do you believe NK is dead or in NA's custody?

Rawani:
Hello!

Didn't you get the memo?

PMB already joined his mates months ago, the person in charge now is President Jubrin from Sudan, who is a body double/clone/robot that was hurriedly grown/built/welded /manufactured/assembled in London/Sudan by the evil cabal that doesn't want power to leave the North. I bet that the remote control is in Abba Kyari's hands. You know the North can do ANYTHING to remain in power, isn't it so?

Didn't you see Aisha crying when she returned from visiting sick PMB in London?

Can't you see Jubrin read the lengthy independence speech without coughing or lifting his head?

Can't you see this Jubrin is fatter and looking much healthier? In fact he can now see without his glasses.

In this light, with any ounce of integrity, all complaints and grievances should henceforth be blamed on Jubrin, especially the python lap dance. Afterall, the vegetable that was diagnosed of brain, lung, prostrate, ear and finger cancer could not possibly have survived; Kanu, FFK and Dokubo said so.



Absolutely! So let's wait for the international community to take action against this clone!

This couldn't be the real Buhari naw....abi could it?

Chaiiii!
Some people can be heartless.

Please, just take it easy with them...it's just politics of opposition (or maybe incitement and indictment). No 'harm' intented

As for me sha, I no gree. Jubrin is not my President.

gidgiddy:
Thats the question a reasonable person should ask. Besides, the proscription of IPOB is not final as Ifeanyi Ejiofor has already challenged that in court.







There are videos on youtube showing the Army surrounding Kanu's house. Im sure the Army did not surround Kanu's house for the fun of it. Someone will also have to explain how Kanu's house recieved several bullet holes after the Army surrounded it.

Unless someone wants us to believe that the Army took hammer and nails to put holes in the building

One problem I have with those who think they are smart is that they think every other person is a fool while they are wise.

Was NK the only person (as in family) in the house when the alleged operation took place?
Where are his father, mother and brother now?

NK's brother was on air telling everybody his father was taking to an undisclossed facility for treatment and that they are safe just that some IPOB members where killed.

Was it that the NA killed some persons and even a dog, killed or kidnapped NK and his family are not mourning their great son? Can IPOB and Ifeanyi Ejiofor be more concerned or mourn NK more than his family members? How do you want me to believe NK's brother, mother or father (who raised an alarm that the FG was planning to kill his son), will suddenly be quiet about their son's death/disappearance?

I had predicted long ago that IPOB wants to use this guise to make NK evade his appearance in court knowing he might be remanded. But this move is lame.

1. NK's credibility will be affected as only gullible, undecerning fellows will take him serious after he bragged he can never run away from the zoo army instead, the zoo army will run from him.

2. Will he hide forever? Will he change his identity? He had broken almost all known laws in Nigeria but not appearing in court will be a disaster because one day, some day he will definitely reappear.

The Nigerian government may be... but Nigerians aren't stupid. So stop that cheap, unintelligent propaganda.

Thank you Kachikwu for being honest and courageous.

PMB needs to address this issue wisely and timely before our oil and gas sector suffers another setback.

Emotions are already high and fingers pointing bitterly to a particular direction. The ND youths, if they perceive the slightest threat to their dignity, will borrow the devil's tools and that won't be too good considering the uprising in a nearby region.

Una don start!

Evangelist, if APGA wins I am sure you will commend INEC for conducting a free and fair election and say it's victory for democracy. But if APC wins, you will say you told us about their plan to rig in conjunction with NA, NPF and INEC while APC will sing the aforementioned song.

I wonder when we will outgrow this 'politics of incitements' in Nigeria.

Nnamdi kanu

Something tells me you are correct

Don't mention

fastgyal:
thanks dear

she's very pretty. her looks didn't change. the make up only covered the black spots on her face. very very good. not like some girls that'd take the face of another person after make up.

You are pretty also

Op, I am not sure that's the photo of Chidi Okoroafor.

The first thing that came to mind; if one of these were to be my wife, what will I do?

Sincerely, I don't know just yet.
