XANDERO85:Summary! This exactly how I see it!! Nothing to add!!! The cockiness! The pride! The I don't care attitude! It's so brazen, it's suffocating! They award the contracts then send southern ministers to go and read it out and defend it! The nerve is out of this world! |
Okoroawusa:Abacha? Abacha was the one who actually tried to stop it because he wanted to empower his son who later died in a plane crash. That his son got into some lines of businesses that were initially being monopolised by dangote before the plane crash. Dangote ran away then... That sole license thing started in the 70s. Dangote got his in the 80s. He is used to this kind of noise against his activities. It doesn't touch him. His idea of business is to exterminate all opposition and impose his will afterwards.. |
Nigeria has no serious foreign policy goals otherwise Cameroon and equitorial guinea should be having stooges imposed by nigeria as presidents by now. The two presidents there are very unpopular both locally and internationally, very corrupt with little to show for all their years in power that any coup sponsored by the Nigerian intelligence agencies will be celebrated by the locals. Such actions would have helped nigeria keep bakassi, helped Nigeria make more money through favourable oil deals in Equitorial Guinea etc. But then Nigerian military officials reached all sorts of sickening agreements with the western world between 1966 to 1971which has handcapped the country, especially, as it regards rspecting the French and the British spheres of influence in Africa. This is why these dictators flourish at Nigeria expense as was the case with bakassi. |
NigerDeltaIgbos:Wish we had the Russians by our side. All they wanted when Mbanefo visited them before the war was for Ojukwu to nationalise the oil companies. Ojukwu refused. Enahoro met them and promised to do so and they ordered their fleet in Egypt to join up with Gowon. Today the indimis have the oil wells.. If only we had the Russians by our side, just the Russians! The geo-political realities arising from that collabo would have been immensely helpful not just to the Biafrans but to Africa in general afterwards... |
Biafra - Nigeria war!!! NOT Nigeria civil war. It was NEVER a civil war! It was a war between two countries; one, The beutifull Biafran! The land of the goalgetters.., a very authentic African state full of very industrious beings who showcased their proud African heritage with an unrivaled display of gallantry in the battle field armed with stunning homemade scientific discoveries.... The other a colonial wreck aptly termed nigeria. An eternal embarrassment to black Africa! A nasty disjointed retinue of inebriated cultures slavishly taking their orders from neo-colonial pulpits like wild Vandals in their quest to steal oil wells. The war ended with Nigeria becoming the biggest monument of shame for the black man! Eeeeewwww... |
LegendHero:Your sermon is not all that necessary here. We are talking of Igbo towns carved out of igboland and tossed to other areas where they're not comfortable. If they say vehemently that they're not interested in joining the motherland again, of course that should be respected. But here, in Obigbo, we have Obigbo indigenes being slaughtered by federal forces in their own land! Being told there are no igbos in Rivers State, yet being slaughtered for being Igbo in the same Rivers! And you are giving me examples of yoruba enclaves with no "identity crises". I can't remember accusing the Yorubas of having identity crises. I only said that military officers after the Nigeria- Biafra war, took it upon themselves to mutilate Igbo boundaries just to hem in the Igbo into the interior. And that those victimized communities are not getting it fair in the hands of their new brothers as is the case with Wike and Obigbo and Egbema. And since they want to be with their original siblings, every effort must be made to ensure this happens, either now or in the future. Very very simple if you ask me.. |
Lolz @ senior citizens! Are we a gerentocracy? The same senior citizens that are responsible for derailing the country? |
All I know is that this dude Ginimbi, who I just got to know after his death, is the ultimate baller.. |
Chanchit:When it was closed the igbos railed against it and the rest of the country looked the other way! This was an evil policy never practiced anywhere else in the world. It's like imposing sanctions on your self! I know of many young traders ruined by this policy. The Igbo man is done complaining! Yoou termed it "wailing". . Survival mode activated! Let's see who suffers most. A country of wretched vermins that cut their tribal noses to spite their wicked faces. |
Lol Everybody is now complaining... The thought it will kill the "evil middlemen". Very segregative policies made to favour certain sections of the country against the other. Folks refused to talk earlier because they never knew they will be so effected. Noow the chickens have come home to roost.. How can you close your land borders for a whole full year while people are dying of hunger just because you want us to buy from your brothers? Meanwhile northern borders are all wide open. Where else is that done especially when the alternative supplies locally are almost non existent? Little by little, those who created this monster will all come to terms with the consequences of their actions. Hunger is here and it doesn't ask about your ethicity before attacking. |
Moferere:While you get "flogged" by ordinary suya sellers at Fagba? |
For how long will these people be forcing retirees to line up every now and then just to be counted as being alive? |
Why the tears? That frodd keeps acting sometimes like there is a disconnection somewhere in his head.. |
demoBaba:And an Air vice Marshall should be the best representative of a state in election board? |
What is the business of all these ill-trained army officers in the procesd of conducting elections in Nigeria? Ex this and ex that everywhere. Why can't they go and rest? Now that coup plotting has become old fashioned, these guys are appearing in babaringa to continue the ruination of this country from where they started since 1966. |
Moferere:The battle has not even started! Lolz. You call this one battle? The important thing is that the indigenes of these areas are identifying with their relatives in the hinterlands. That's a very good sign. They're the ones who were just killed in their hundreds at Obigbo. They won't forget, the same way the ikwerres who9 are the perpetrators of the killings always boast of never forgetting whatever the igbos did to them. When the battle for the soul of Nigeria starts, the battle for their freedom will also commence.. |
SatisfyOG:We dey the same bus bros, e no easy! They have finished me! All my aunties, uncles name them. And I'm older than you! They will give me bp. Visiting home is scary because everywhere I go, a relative will pull me by the side to ask me why I have refused to marry even though everything is ready? My mother has turned it into a prayer point, I mean it's starting to look like I'm going to marry to satisfy my relatives not necessarily because it's the most burning issue in my mind! You can't imagine the pressure! But these days, I'm starting to get in the mood, problem is that i have not been lucky with the gals recently. It's terrifying, the pressure! These people will push you to marry and if you end up with the wrong partner and the house turns into Madison square garden, where Tyson will be entertaining hollyfied every night, they will all be at their homes blaming you again! It's scary how my so-called marriage has become a communitys business! |
dexmond:Go to the kids section with your toys pls.. you are noisy.. |
Moferere:Not only in kogi, we have Yoruba towns in far away Benin republic and Togo! The Yorubas don't care and that's perfectly fine. We are not like that. In igboland, there's a common saying for travellers; "onye ághànà nwanne ya". It simply means "no one should leave his/her siblings behind". We even send Igbo corpses back to igboland from America, Russia, China etc! Corpses! How much more communities of the living!? You guys are culturally prepared to abandon your own this way, we are not. Let's simply respect each other's practices.. |
adelola500:Ohanaeze ndi Igbo and Igbo governors are the same type of criminals as Wike. We have always told you. You are the ones who insist otherwise. The igbos know whom to listen to.. |
Elvictor:You "will chase" us out of the "land" you already "took"? Mbok? |
Pharaoh4rin:Igbo traders are well schooled in this kind of mayhem. Ask yourself how did the Igbo traders survive in a place like kano? Very soon, they will do meeting for all those Tinubu boys. After that, na them go begin cry of oppression and domination in your own land.. |

VaselineCrew:Your argeument is is not totally straightforward. In the first place, Cement production used to be in the exclusive list before liberalisation of the economy. Secondly, the make up of the producers and the way they seem to set prices not related to market realities , suggest they're starting to act like some monopolistic cartel. Thirdly, it's the duty of the government to protect consumers from monopolies and over pricing. That's why we have the consumer protection agency. Dangote and co get tax waivers and licences to open quarries and mine minerals to subsidize their production abilities. These were done to help them manufacture cheaply. That iddea of cheaper cement, has now been defeated. Finally, Government imposed bans on importation of cement to help local producers compete. If those local operators start to abuse the process by selling at prices higher than imported ones, government should step in and help the economy by applying appropriate sanctions. Regulating anti business practices by manufacturers is part of the responsibilities of the government. That's still capitalism at play... |
BrownLondon:As mischievous as Your intents are, you are totally right! There is nothing like southern nigeria. What we had at independence were the north, the east and the west. There were agitations in the middle belt and the Midwest. The Midwest came into fruition before the war and the subsequent balkanization by Gowon and his gang. So yeah! Without equivocation, southern nigeria as a group is imaginary! It was reinvented by the North and Obasanjo post 1999 to alternate power between the fulani and the Yorubas. The fulani representing the north and Obasanjo filling in for the Yoruba/south. There is nothing like the North and the South. Political interests domiciled in the east are different in many ways from those of the north or the west. |
They will face the law? The government will then face the wrath of the people. This government will never cow the youths of the country no matter how hard they try. |
Ugonna62:Ugonna Aka apùkwana gî... |
budusky05:Who's this one? |
vanunu:Folks should read up on the atrocious activities of the Justice Mamman Nasir boundary adjustment committee. Together with the likes of Obasanjo, these evil people simply sat down and used knives to carve out oil producing areas of these communities from the SE states. The evil perpetuated by the Nigerian state against the SE is mind boggling. |
