Freewilly: Is this what you want to present to your people as wife ? my dear I think you've been drinking way too much burukutu.

Wow! She's fine. Is this one Egba too? Egba people seem to be special, lol.

Freewilly: Is this what you want to present to your people as wife ? my dear I think you've been drinking way too much burukutu.

Quit lying. That ain't my Iyaboh, lol.

No wonder. I mean - think about it. Ijebu people are good looking people. I should have known. But at any rate, I can still use her great pedigree in open letter penning considering how dirty 2015 is likely to be. By the time I pen it 1, 2, 3 times some efulefus in the east would sit up.

I need this preemptive strike before the likes of ndu_chuks strike and afonja her with their seasoned oratory.

Hell to the no! You mean she ain't gat Ijebu in her?

Folks, I just read Iyaboh's letter, sorry - open letter, to OBJ. Umunna, after reading this letter I have concluded its Iyaboh or no one. However, the only issue that's giving me some sort of cold feet is the facial similarity between OBJ and Iyaboh. Umunna, what do you guys think? I really don't want to have any Obasanjo-look-alike in my house, or in Imo state for that matter. Y'all know Imo people are sweet good looking fellas so having OBJ's face is a no no. So, umunna, for me and my future Iyaboh - what should I do? Me thinks Iyaboh deserves some sweet fella from across the Niger to finally seal this deal nature started with Igbos and Ijebus, my bad - Biafrans and Ijebus. Y'all know Ijebus and Igbos are like jelly and peanut butter. I even heard there's a place called Ijebu-Igbo in Ijebu land - you see what I mean? So, maybe its time for me to finally take this plunge into Ijebu land and make Iyaboh Obasanjo my 3rd wife - oh no my 4th - dammm it! Where is Ebuka - Ebuka! Ebuka!! - How many wives do I have? ......Wow! I have that much? Well, as a Nigerian man and an African High Chief to be, I have decreed forthwith that Iyaboh will be my first wife. She will displace the original first wife through circular-wife-shift and if the previous first whines one time, just one time! she'll get a beat-down Obasanjo style.

Anyways, Iyaboh get in touch with me. Like your silly brother, Fani, I know you have a moniker here on NL, so get in touch as soon as you read this. Lets do this Iyaboh. I believe you deserve a nice fella from across the Niger.

I hope you'll teach me how to write open letters after we seal the deal 'cause I've been meaning to write a few to Arthur Nzeribe, Rochas Okorocha, Amechi, and David West. I need to bring them back before they get snatched. Seriously, those efulefus are about to be afonjad Afonja style by the Uthmans.

Lol.

Katsumoto: That's not a proper analogy.

3 men (Igbo, Yoruba, & Northerner) shared 9 candles until the Igbo man took all 9 candles while the other two were sleeping claiming that he was a better keeper. The Northerner got angry and engaged the Igbo man in a fight and took all 9 candles for himself. Now that he has 9 candles, why would he revert to the original arrangement? If the Igbo man didn't get greedy and attempt to take all 9 candles, would the Northerner know the benefit of having all candles? Plain and simple - if you seek an advantage for yourself and someone else seizes that advantage from you, why will he relinquish it?

Are you saying that the author of Why We Struck was not part of the group that "got greedy" and took "the 9 candles?"
Are you also saying that during the genocidal war Gowon launched on the Easterners to retake the "9 candles" that no South Westerner joined in?

Wow! So all of a sudden its now only the Northerners that did the dirty work. So where is SW in this revisionism? I guess you're countering Fani Kayode who loudly proclaimed that it was SW generals who beat Biafrans silly and cosequently forced them back into Nigeria. Fani won't be happy if he gets a wind of this new revelation. In case you forgot, he also said that Igbos have been crying since SW beat them - verify if you're in doubt.

So I ask again - what about all the noise and book launching on how we were destroyed? Many of which came from SW?

I don't even want to go into the whole 20 pounds, starvation, shooting at everything that moves, indigenization shebang because, quite frankly, it makes no difference to me right now.

I can only say that it looks to me like you have a serious knack for revisionism.

At this point whoever did what no longer matters. What's important is where Nigeria's tomorrow is located, and if you ask me I would say its right in the pit of fiery hell. That's why I must to get out now that I can and let those who've sold their soul to One-Nigeria continue their journey undisturbed.

Folks keep the convo going.

tensor777: /quote]
Well I am not from the SW, but the leaders/intellectuals are only being honest. What would they gain from Nigeria splitiing? Another round of intra-ethnic bloodletting or worse. Besides they have had far better local administration compared with the SE.

Don't forget the Ironsi regime of the first part of 1966 was the most blatantly tribal regime in Nigerian history.Yet after the violent mutiny and reaction by northern and middle belt rank and file soldiers and the subsequent execution of Ironsi people like Ojukwu started championing the course of Confederation not even Regionalism, whereas before the overthrow people like Ojukwu were enthusiastically One Nigeria men.

However the SW has always been pro-unity and that has continued to this day. Of course they may prefer their own politicians to be ruling the roost but even if they aren't that wouldn't make them to be pro-disintegration.

Hmm! So Mr One-Nigeria defender is not even from SW. I see why he's threatening fire and brimstone should any of us make a move towards self determination. Arewa can't fool us buddy. I assume its now glaring to all that only a section of Nigeria talks about war whenever the future of Dan Fodio's estate is contested. Anyways, you can continue with "sweet talking" the SW on one hand and on the other, have Junaid Muhammed promise fire and destruction over Lagos. I'm really enjoying this chess-game.

Nwanne, oga eme gi vam n'anya.

We're getting there. No intimidation, IED, threat, and violence is powerful enough to stop an idea whose time has come. Disintegration is here with us and can no longer be denied anymore.

Northern Sudan treated Southern Sudan like animals for decades because the former believed they were the "chosen Arabs" in the midst of filthy southern black Christians. Well, need I say how it ended?

For One-Nigerianists and Born-to-Rules, I've got news for you and its this - same equation same solution.

Folks lets be honest for a second. Lets leave politics aside and put some thought into the following questions.

1) Do you think sacking GEJ will forever stop the extremism in the core north?
2) If we sack the whole of southern Nigeria, that is - if we relocate all peoples of southern Nigeria to - say Liberia, do you think the war between Core north and middle belt will stop?
3) But, if we sack the whole of MB, west, and East and leave the oil for core north don't you think all the threats and fights will cease?

If your guess is as good as mine then you know that sacking all the military boys of southern and MB extraction, including the police, can only temporarily douse the tension and bitterness for - say 3 or 4 years. Then after that momentary "violence holiday" reduces to nothingness what do we get? you guessed right - resumption of political sharia and all other education harams, christian harams, alcohol harams, election harams, carton harams, miss world harams, Berom harams, Igbo harams, and whatever haram that makes their list.

The problem in Nigeria is cultural. The only thing that can solve it is if all the MB and southern peoples are sacked, thereby eliminating the opposing culture. So brothers, all the piecemeal sacking won't cut it unless you do a comprehensive and total sack of your families and mine, then and only then shall the Jihadists expansionists be assuaged.

Remember this - Plateau peoples made space for them. But today that space is not enough, hence plateau peoples must be sacked.
I say sack Ihejirika, sack the head of the Air Force, sack the head of Navy, sack IGP, sack senate president, and sack GEJ. In fact sack anything you can think of including yourself. Replace all with the "anointed" men and women from the preferred culture. But before you say "mission accomplished" I advise you meditate on the word of Shaka Zulu below:

"With open hands I welcomed the lion into my kingdom, with open mouth the lion welcomed me into his belly" - Shaka Zulu.

Fellas, there you have it. I suggest we put up a fence along the cultural fault-line. Its easier and cheaper. Most importantly it will buy us sleep and relief for a very long time.

Lol, they're beginning to come to terms with the foolishness of their assumed invincibility.

Just as the war against Boko Haram is a lost one, the core-north's fight to hang on to ND's oil is a lost one as well.

All the threats on Lagos economy, off-shore oil, National conference induced war, etc to scare us will fall flat.

Hopefully you all will get the message and act right in time or be put on the chopping-block.

sibabdulazeez: @adepojuot:Honestly speaking if we try to make negative statement on pples religion is not the best.The only thing we need to do is prayers asking God to reveal the secret of all those pple involve them self in killing innocent pple and purnish them in this world and the here after.The so called BOKO HARAM IS NOT ISLAM:As per as am concern islam teachers peace.And islam did not ask its followers to imposed it religion to other pple,so the so called MOTTO OF BOKO HARAM TO IMPOSED ISLAM BY FORCE ON PPLE IS NOT ISLAM.Therefore stop making negative statement on things you dont know.

Word! Hmm, check out this link and tell us what they are. The link contains pictures that some people might find distasteful, so you're warned.

Folks who know the truth know that war against Boko Haram is un-winnable. GEJ himself knows it, but as a president he's bound by the constitution to send in the military because, "according to the law," the sovereignty of Nigeria is being tested. The reason the war against Boko Haram was lost before it even began is this - Boko Haram is an integral part of the present Nigeria. Its ideology and means have always existed and will continue for as long as life endures. This fact is unarguable because, despite all the watery attempt to exonerate, the "holy" text members of Boko Haram read and the particular brand of this sect's faith bears unambiguous testimony to the truth.

If history is a worthy guide then we know that there has never been a time a people were successfully coerced to drop their faith. To win this wars entails we kill them all or force them to reject their faith which you and I know is impossible and senseless anyways.

What Boko Haram is doing today is simply putting some teeth in the beliefs and culture of their forefathers, so its insane to think we can make them stop a practice that violently took of in 1945. Boko Harams genuinely believe in their cause and we ought to grant them their wish rather than waste our limited resource in arms and weapons purchases. In the end we'd find out we had improved the economies of the arms suppliers, drained our purse, and still living with more Boko Harams.

There is a natural solution to this stalemate that does not require bombs and bullets - Lets use it now.
If we did that long ago, maybe, our undergrads would be in school now. Maybe it would've been the arms supplier's children that would be at home now. We can go on wasting time and fighting a lost war or we can put up a fence along the middle belt and use the leftover change for the proper education of our children - its easier and cheaper.

Perhaps we need to take another look at Gideon Orka's proposal.
Time is gold.

plaindealer: Grand betrayal and destructive division.


Location wise, no surprise here anyway...

Really, 5 months - that's almost half a year. In the US you can knock off 18 credit hours in ECE Department in 5 months and then go for internship. Students are not politicians. I don't see why they should pay for a fight between grown folks. The only thing I see here is Nigerian time is very cheap. Other parts of the world value their time and I advise we emulate them. maybe you need to look at Ghana.

rman: This exactly the problem, I am talking about Nigeria, you are talking about north and south, and even called a Junaid as one of the supporters. I'm not a northnerner and don't live there. You have actually politicized this attack again.
The average Hausa or fulani doesn't really care. It is because of politics that it grew into this. Buhari, Emirs Junaid etc that we all accuse are not the people we are fighting. If they are even the international community would have altered our intelligence authority here.
What is happening is more! It is war.
Unless, you are saying a community that is perpetually full of poor people all of sudden came about wealth to fight a war.

I am not saying we should all carry weapons and move to the north. Coming together means the decision makers should all be on the same page.

The blame game on northerners should stop.
Mind you, it can't happen in the south is all in your imagination. USA with all her technology advancement and money spent on security didn't see September 11 coming. It just happened.

I shared your kind of views before. But at some point we all have to accept the reality and move on. Whether you accept it or not, the people in Boko Haram infested region, both their govt and elders, made this day a reality and we have no choice but to let them follow their heart desire which is - Islamic/sharia law for their land. If you think that's not why they're killing us then what is it? unemployment? - the last time I checked unemployment is a national problem yet people here are not killing because of it. Illiteracy? - well, they've had about 40 years of unfettered access to the leadership and resources of this country so I don't see how I should help them with the 20 pounds they gave my Dad.

So you see, no matter what anyone says the problem in the north is religious. Its a problem that has been incubating even before independence. Today that problem has delivered a full blown mess. So, bro there's no getting together on this one because even if we intend to, our help will be returned to us in body-bags. If you doubt it, search the number of Southern people who went to the north to help teach or vaccinate the core northern children but were returned in body-bags. These people we stick out our neck to love despise us and our ways. To them, we're morally bankrupt and scum of the earth, we're infidels who deserve death as mercy. I want to help but no one has told me how that can be achieved, hence my decision to move one with life. Perhaps, the only thing we can do is to wait for them to get back to common sense then, maybe then, we can help each other.


Lest I forget, when you mentioned we should get together it seems you forgot how Dr Junaid Muhammed threatened that the national conference call is a declaration of war. So, tell me how you intend to get together and sing Kumbaya with people who say getting together is an act of war. As if that was not enough, he threatened Lagos a few days ago. And this man is a well trained medical doctor not some ignorant fool, a highly respect man we're talking about here.

And please for the love of God, 9/11 and Boko Haram terror are like night and day. Boko Harams are resident here while 9/11 terrorists are into hit and run. Ours is different ok. We just happened to have resident devils. When you have a resident devil you change apartment, thats what you do.

Anyways, I can only say the reason some of us pander and absolve the nonsensical and atrocious excesses of the core north is because some of us are scared of them. There's no other reason for it. But I have news for those of us who have cold feet on this issue and its this - This is our lives and we only have one shot at it, one shot! not two, not three - only one. We can slavishly keep quiet and waste another 50 years talking about polio, almajiri, Boko Haram, dead NYSC memeber, national conference, Ango Abdulahi, born to rule, and Junaid Muhammed or we can spend another 50 catching up and out-pacing many Asian nations and having our flag flying on the moon with a message that beckons on the rest of Africa to join us in making the black race proud. The choice is ours.

rman: Nigeria is at war!

Northern Nigeria is under attack!!!

We should see this as what it is, A DECLARATION OF WAR ON NIGERIA.

We should not allow political, ethnic or religious affiliation to cloud our reasoning. This is no longer bokoharam, it has gone beyond that.

Coordinated attacks on strategic Federal infrastructures should not be treated with kid gloves.

All these reactionary attacks when damage has been done is rubbish. How many dead Nigerians/casualties is the FG/ Nigerian armed forces waiting for before we go on complete offensive. I don't care if they are in Cameron, Niger or Morocco. Go there and bomb them to shreads!!!

We need to put a stop to this by going on the offensive. What's the use of all the road blocks and strong army presence in the north if airports can be attacked successfully?

#1) We all need to wake up and come together,
#2)if we allow them succeed in the north because we don't like northerners, it is just a matter of time, they will come for us all. By then, it may be too late.

#1) We're together already. Unless by together you mean we should go up north and put out the fire with bare hands - If this is what you mean then I ain't down with that, you can take a ride up north if you want it that bad. And while you're going please remember to put some IEDs in a bag in case Dr Junaid Muhammed and his band of wahabi influenced Jihadists misinterpret your goodwill.

#2) No, its not gonna happen. I used to think that before but now I know they don't have what it takes to cross down south. Yea, maybe they can come in once in awhile and hastily throw in some pop-can bombs but nothing serious. They can't set up shop in any southern region unless that region shares same ideology with them Jihadists.

Bro, in this day and age its been well established that terror grows if and only if its homegrown.
In a way, I feel for them northerners because its their city and future they're burning down but I don't know how an Eastern Christian like me can help bunch of self-entitled Jihadists who have vowed to decimate and enslave members of my faith and ethnicity.

Hope you feel me.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]Don't be too sure about that. You'll be surprised when both Buhari and GEJ refuse to contest in 2015. Either way, providence is on the side of Nigeria and Nigerians, millions of us are praying for devine intervention while working very hard to make the country better. Insha Allah, our prayers will be answered and those who do not wish the country well will be shamed.[/quote]Praying - you mean like the one your folks prayed on Facebook for GEJ awhile ago.

I don't know about your God but the one I serve usually don't stop folks who're bent on falling in a ditch they dug for themselves. So, I think your time will serve you well if you start untangling and apologizing for the whole mess rather than threatening us with more bloodshed.

I'm not sure you can untangle it anyway. Its one huge mess - Berom, Zaki Biam, killings in Benue, post election violence, Madalla bomb blast, This Day blast, Sabon geri massacre, list goes on and on. Dude, your work is cut out for you so its best if you stop praying and go to work before its too late.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]It appears you are not as fed up as Sam_Ikenna. Can you people make up your minds already? Noone in the SE is gearing up for any vote like scotland, the last time I checked. Your leaders do not share your views neither do the vast majority of ordinary Igos in Igboland. mumu[/quote]Don't count on that.

Nwanne, the Nigeria you see today is about to tame and emasculate the "born to rules." Its a stage by stage affair. After we're finished with taming and emasculation then we move on to the next. Its good that core north is feeling the heat now and trying to hold on to lost friends. We did it and we came out stronger and smarter, believe me its for your own good.

Feel the pain bro, that's what power does. When you had it you tortured and balkanized us like we ain't worth a cent. Its karma working. But if you guys change maybe we can negotiate.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]Why don't you and your group leave right now, since you are fed up? What is stopping you from declaring your country rightway? Would it be fear?[/quote]I told you before we're on asymmetrical path to victory. Don't be in a haste bro.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]@Sam_Ikenna, your anger made you miss the most important aspect of Junaid's statements. I reproduce it here:


In an interview with SUNDAY PUNCH, Mohammed said the conference would not solve the problems of corruption, illiteracy and poverty facing the country and noted that such national conferences had yielded negative results in countries such as Niger Republic, Benin Republic, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

How can any sane person disagre with the bolded above?

May I ask you how you intend to solve the problems above in biafra, when your superiors all over Nigeria and in the SE in particular, have not yet been able to find viable solutions to date? I hope you do not run away from the question and expect you to tell us your proposed solution. Thanks.[/quote]Ndu, I'm not angry ok. I'm just fed up with the weight you put around my neck. I have only one life to live and I do not intend to waste it anymore chasing shadows and fruitless projects, one of which is "One-Nigeria project" with a people who want to rule and dictate the pace for the rest of us, yet don't have the decency to let us worship or live in peace. They want to lead yet can't make the grade on exams that were administered at same times and under same conditions and rules. So, I'm not angry. As an individual, if I, with 2 points, was given admission or promoted over someone with 138 points I would be really ashamed of myself. So, you see its not about anger rather its about the rest of us being sick of the weight that we've been carrying since 1960. And today we're determined more than ever before to fix or get rid of it by any means necessary.

Now, to answer your hollow questions - you asked how I intend to solve the numerous problems in Biafraland. While the easiest, and perhaps the best answer to it is - not your headache, let me worry about mine while you worry about yours, I will pass on that and say this - My people do not have illiteracy problem ok, that area is core north's headache. The number of graduates SE, SS, or SW produces in a year, I bet it 'll take the core north 5 years to come even close, so Junaid must be high on crack to think his problem is same as mine.

On Poverty: Yes, poverty is uniform in Nigeria but we can agree that the causes are not uniform. Different regions have different causes. In your region men take multiple young and old women alike and keep them dis-empowered, ignorant, and unimaginative with numerous children. These God's children (males) are later shipped to almajiri schools at a tender age and robbed of bright future. Whereas in my own region you see poverty due to institutional economic strangulation that started right after the civil war.

If we had our own self govt we wouldn't beg the FG for 40 years for international airport - true or false? We wouldn't beg the FG for second Niger bridge - am I lying? We wouldn't be helpless in the dredging of river Niger. Those and more were and still are the causes of poverty in Igboland. You know it, I know it, so lets cut the pretenses and be real. I believe we're more production, commerce, and export oriented than other regions - not taking anything from any region 'cause every region has something they're better than the rest at. I just gave you ours.

So, bro if we had our republic like we rightly desired and deserved, we would be at par with some countries like south Korea today. Igbo culture is a culture of "this is your life show us what you got" so when I say we wouldn't be as poor as core north today its not just noise, its a truth that's etched in stone. As matter of fact no region in Nigeria would resemble core north in any way should the inevitable happens - that's the hard truth most of you, including Junaid, are fighting to prevent. Nigeria is an unreasonable drag to many southern regions. I understand some might want to play the devil's advocate and say - its not true - but hey, that's their biz. As for me and my people there's nothing better than ending this unholy marriage.

On corruption, that's a no-brainer. Greed is the cause of corruption everywhere but in Nigeria tribalism is the main protector of it. So, that answers your question. Different people deal with problems in different ways. As for us, when money is stolen from our purse we'll know who's the culprit and he can't hide under ethnicity like we do now in Nigeria.

On this one: "and noted that such national conferences had yielded negative results in countries such as Niger Republic, Benin Republic, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo," I ask - what should we do then? Fold our arms? Keep watching Junaid and Boko Haram finish the rest of us because we're going to have problems if we call for national conference? Dude, you guys must have the biggest balls in the universe. How can you guys be killing us and still have the nerve to say if we call for conference its going to be worse - how much worse can it be? We're already losing people thanks to bloodthirsty Junaid and his retinue of fatalistic Jihadists. We ain't afraid of their violence anymore and we won't be intimidated or cowed into submission because the Jihadists are going to up the violence. So, in case you're still confused on what my answer to this last question is - it is that we don't have a choice anymore. Many years of your endless butchery has left us with zero choice so we either swim this time or sink.

Nwanne m, we're leaving you and that's final.
I'm going to say this to you and I want you to think long and hard about it. It is this - we're fed up.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]The sad thing about the bolded affair is that, supposedly well educated and intelligent Igbos such as Sam_Ikenna and Onlytruth were willing to sell their souls and principles if only Ngige was prevented from winning the election. Their stance is based on tribalism, racism, and hatred of Yorubas who they believe are the owners of APC.

Its quite shameful.[/quote]Lol, bro this won't work for you. I will reiterate one of my earlier posts today in case you missed it. This is what I wrote and in it you can see that I'm not opposed to any candidate from SS, SW, MB, or SE. I only have issues with core north because of the unconscionable sense of entitlement and the condescending tone with which they consistently use to play god and arrogate power unto themselves like we don't matter in our own country. We will not stop until they're completely tamed, and if they refuse to be tamed we will help them crashland their craft in Arewa republic.

Now, this is my response to one Donmams' vitriol in a thread titled "2015: GEJ Unites The North."

[quote author=Sam_Ikenna]Sorry bro. I feel your pain but it seems you gonna have to live with GEJ for another 4 years, or should I say - 6 years, counting from today. All past Nigerian presidents did as they wished - I don't need to remind you what a fool your brothers thought we were when they called the shots, right? so GEJ will be no different.

If you guys are willing to support a candidate from Southern Kaduna, Middle Belt, South West, South East, and South South then most of us 'll be ready to access them based on merit and will vote accordingly. But if this current threat, vitriol, or bluster is only for a candidate of Hausa-Fulani extraction then you're in for a long night. A very long nightttt.

South West gave way for Midwest and South East gave room for South South, therefore your "one North" is a nonsensical illusion. Give it up and be the proud Hausa-Fulani that you truly are. Stand on your feet negro! Its about time you did.

Anyways, I know you're not gonna take my advice because its against the dreams and wishes of your grand daddy, Dan Fodio. But unfortunately, you don't have too much of a choice here. We're taking our lives back and never to be part of Dan Fodio's estate again. So, its either you get on with the program the rest of us are currently on which is - zero special quota, complete resource control, freedom, justice, and right to self-determination for all, or you can continue with your threats and watch us leave you behind. Adios!

Oh yea. You keep mentioning Igbos like we took away your sleeping center. What happened buddy? I thought you won the war with South South as your close pal? How come you lost them and now the same "vile Igbos" are giving you a migraine? Igbos again! oh my gosh! Why can't god tame these "kafiris" for us the Dan Fodians.

Dude, if only you went back to the drawing board and, perhaps, consulted your brains you would've seen how much of a joker your core north had become. Stop hoping for a return of the good old days - its gone for good. Its every man for himself now and I hope you do your math very well before taking a plunge with South West because, quite frankly, I don't see anything you're selling that South West is buying. But hey, I might wrong. Who knows, maybe your core north has found a love charm for South West which we can only speak of its potency after the result of 2015 gets to INEC's collation center.[/quote]

Onlytruth: Nwanne this Ngige defeat pain you well well.

Ndo i nula.

Next stop Imo!

You know what's going down. You know Rochas is finished. He took the goodwill of Imo people for granted. Imo - the state Sam Nbakwe labored for. Just watch and see what will happen to Rochas' career.

Abagworo: If Jonathan runs a free and fair election , then there
won't be violence. Everyone already knows that Jonathan
cannot win any free and fair election in Nigeria. 80% of
Nigerians don't like him. Most people that support him on
the social media are obviously paid. What they did in
Anambra is an insult to any intelligent being and cannot
work in a Presidential election or even in a politically
sensitive Local Government.

Bro, umunna si na onye nwanne ya na agba ajo egwu, uko iku n'ako ya. Biko, where are you getting your stats? Obu kwa anyi na gi kwu?

I've always known that core northerners don't need any help in crashing this whole mess. To expedite the collapse you just have to do one thing and one thing only - sit back and sip a big juicy slurpee from big Mac.

[quote author= Junaid]The National Coordinator of the Coalition of Northern Politicians, Academics, Professionals and Businessmen, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, has criticised the call for a sovereign national conference, saying the proponents of the conference are asking for another civil war.

In an interview with SUNDAY PUNCH, Mohammed said the conference would not solve the problems of corruption, illiteracy and poverty facing the country and noted that such national conferences had yielded negative results in countries such as Niger Republic, Benin Republic, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

He said, “The most spectacular failure of the national conference system is that of DR Congo. DR Congo is a big country with big problems. It’s a classical example of what you call a failed state. They held a sovereign national conference with so much fanfare. At the end of the day, what they had was not only a coup but a revolution.

“So, I have news for those who believe national conference is the panacea for the problems of Nigeria. Most of the problems of Nigeria today are contextual problems. The sovereign national conference in Nigeria will not solve the problems of corruption, illiteracy and poverty. It will not give an honest and realistic government and it will not give a sincere and responsible revenue allocation formula. These are the problems of Nigeria.

“No country, so far, has disintegrated peacefully. What they are asking or demanding is that we go through another civil war. If they want that, they are more than welcome. But they should be man enough to come out and say we want to disintegrate this country and we are prepared for the consequences. The first consequence is war; the second is the attendant consequences of war. We don’t have anything to fear.”

Mohammed argued that the North had far more advantage over the South, when it comes to war, stating that any set of people who attempt to disintegrate the country would be crushed in the way of Biafra.

“The last time the Igbo carried out their own coup, in which they killed people from other ethnic groups and there was retaliation and they started talking about war, we had war. Who lost? They did.

Over one million lives were lost and over 90 per cent of them were Igbo. And the people who instigated the Igbo to go to war were Lagosians. When they took up the challenge, these people withdrew from them. If they want that now, I wish them good luck” he said.[/quote]http://www.punchng.com/news/supporters-of-snc-asking-for-civil-war/

Ouch!

[quote author= Junaid, again]Second Republic member of the House of Representatives and Russian trained Medical Doctor, Junaid Mohammed, has declared that blood would flow on the streets of Nigeria, should President Jonathan insist on running for the presidency in 2015.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Sunday Sun from his base in Kano, the former lawmaker, who chaired the House Committee on International Economic Relations and Socialist Bloc, argued that it was wrong for anyone to suggest that the clamour for power to return to the North in 2015, was coming from the North alone, insisting that there abound more agitators in the South-west, in this regard, than there are in the North, adding that "I can tell you today that there are more agitators in the South-west, for power shift to the North, than there are in the North. And they are doing this because they believe in justice and fairness.



If you have faith in a system, you must ensure the system runs fairly and justly too. Apart from the issue of fairness and justice, the South-west knows that it has a lot to lose, should it allow the country to plunge into any political upheaval. Lagos alone, accounts for 45 percent of our national economy, and my friend, Bola Ahmed Tinubu is aware of that notorious fact. So the South-west cannot fold its hands and watch one irresponsible and incompetent leader lead the country into an avoidable political violence. Common sense tells the South-west that it would not be in their interest for this country to convulse again."[/quote]http://www.theheraldng.com/apc-is-a-tribalist-and-fascist-party-dr-junaid-mohammed/

[quote author=ndu_chucks]So you, of all people have turned into a bigot? I am disappointed.

The SE/SS have their Dokubo-Asari and others, SW have FFK and others, the North have Junaid and others. When you take an interview or pronouncement by any one of these folks as representative of the views of the region they come from, then I must say that you are a fool.

Here is the Alex, who almost became Eze Ndigbo NL, making tribalist and hateful statements about a whole region because of one man's view - SMH[/quote]Lol! I'm loving this. ndu_chuks nwanne, or should I say - nwanne m, no matter how slimy and adept you are you cannot wriggle out of this. I'm sorry buddy, its over. Junaid is the real deal. He just keeps on giving. Please, folks should give this man more open mic.

Anyways, I just read something that slipped past me. I just could not believe I let another powerful expose from Junaid go unnoticed. You know what - I'm just gonna put the interview up as a new thread and I will title it "This is why Biafrans are leaving ndu_chuks and Junaid Muhammed" lol!

Sweetttttt! It feels good to be part of this unfolding history.

Donmams: GEJ thinks northerners are like Igbos that he can buy off with money. The President is ready to shell out trillions so that they can help him rig the 2015 elections. This is why he has been amassing trillions of naira with the help and support of Diezani.
However, GEJ's actions and utterances ever since his election in 2011 has seriously wounded the pride of the north. He claimed that it was the igbos that voted for him in the north when he and everyone else knew it was the northern elites who he bribed with billions in 2011 that got him the 25% he desperately needed. No matter how much he gives as bribe to the northern elite, they will be only too keen to show GEJ that the 25% he got in 17 of 20 northern states in 2011 was not from the igbos.
In addition, PEJ was quoted about 6 months ago in PH thanking traditional rulers in the state for helping to defeat the 'northerners' in 2011. The North will only be so happy to show PEJ that it was their own doing that allowed GEJ to win elections and not some obscure traditional rulers in PH.
Another fatal mistake made by GEJ is marginalising the north and muslims completely in his administration. He presided over the killing of Gen. Mamman Shuwa, the attempted killing of Ado Bayero and other prominent northern personalities. If GEJ thinks for a second that the North believes it was the work of Boko Haram then he must be S.T.U.P.I.D.E.R than he looks. As a matter of fact the north knows very well that GEJ's invisible hand is all over the protracted Boko Haram crisis in Borno and Yobe. There is also the problem of Marginalization of Muslims in recruitment into Nigerian security apparatuses. It is all too clear that GEJ has an agenda and the north can no longer fold its hands and watch as GEJ systematically destroys the north.
Consequently, no one in the north believes the spate of bombing attacks that bedevilled the north that died down after the death of Gen. Azazi was simply a coincidence.
The truth is GEJ has united the north to stand firmly against his reelection plans because quite frankly it is a do or die affair for the north. The north simply can't survive 4 more years of GEJ. GEJ is desperate to destroy the north politically, economically, socially and militarily as his all too obvious ploys and schemes have shown. For the north, fighting against GEJ is but a matter of survival. Nothing unites a people more than the threat of extinction. GEJ is that threat. The people of the north will sing with one voice in 2015: 'Down with GEJ'.

Sorry bro. I feel your pain but it seems you gonna have to live with GEJ for another 4 years, or should I say - 6 years, counting from today. All past Nigerian presidents did as they wished - I don't need to remind you what a fool your brothers thought we were when they called the shots, right? so GEJ will be no different.

If you guys are willing to support a candidate from Southern Kaduna, Middle Belt, South West, South East, and South South then most of us 'll be ready to access them based on merit and will vote accordingly. But if this current threat, vitriol, or bluster is only for a candidate of Hausa-Fulani extraction then you're in for a long night. A very long nightttt.

South West gave way for Midwest and South East gave room for South South, therefore your "one North" is a nonsensical illusion. Give it up and be the proud Hausa-Fulani that you truly are. Stand on your feet negro! Its about time you did.

Anyways, I know you're not gonna take my advice because its against the dreams and wishes of your grand daddy, Dan Fodio. But unfortunately, you don't have too much of a choice here. We're taking our lives back and never to be part of Dan Fodio's estate again. So, its either you get on with the program the rest of us are currently on which is - zero special quota, complete resource control, freedom, justice, and right to self-determination for all, or you can continue with your threats and watch us leave you behind. Adios!

Oh yea. You keep mentioning Igbos like we took away your sleeping center. What happened buddy? I thought you won the war with South South as your close pal? How come you lost them and now the same "vile Igbos" are giving you a migraine? Igbos again! oh my gosh! Why can't god tame these "kafiris" for us the Dan Fodians.

Dude, if only you went back to the drawing board and, perhaps, consulted your brains you would've seen how much of a joker your core north had become. Stop hoping for a return of the good old days - its gone for good. Its every man for himself now and I hope you do your math very well before taking a plunge with South West because, quite frankly, I don't see anything you're selling that South West is buying. But hey, I might wrong. Who knows, maybe your core north has found a love charm for South West which we can only speak of its potency after the result of 2015 gets to INEC's collation center.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]Nwanne m, I respect your opinion above and have no doubt that you do not believe in our laws and constitution. The realities which you continue to refuse to face is that majority of 170+ million Nigerians do not share your views as expressed here. Even in your country of residence, there are fringe groups who do not believe in their laws and constitution. These fringe groups, like the one you belong to, still believe that they are going to secede from the USA. In my opinion these groups suffer from Delusions of grandeur.

I can see that the ghost of Sir Ahmadu Bello is still haunting you people, 50 years after you murdered him and his wife in cold blood. This is 2013, let go of the past and join hands with us to build this nation. If you do not benefit from the results of the ongoing nation building efforts, because you may be an old coot (like Mr. Gull), at least your children or grandchildren may benefit.[/quote]Your point always. But I hear you though.

[quote author=ndu_chucks]If you and your cohorts believe what you wrote above, you should go to court and work within our system for remedy. Enough of being cry babies.




Go to court and fight it out or apply pressure on your representatives to act if you believe that Kano state violated your constitutional rights.

I knew you belong to the lawless crew in Texas. If your private clubs in Bailey County sell Alcohol to you people, you and the club owners belong in jail.[/quote]That's my point. I don't have the time neither do I believe in your laws or institutions. They have been rigged to represent or over-represent your interests through outrageous allocation of members of the national assembly and other unconscionable quota system/federal character.

Not to digress, Way before 1960 Ahmad Bello claimed Nigeria was his grandfather's estate. He stated before independence that "we're now ready to take over the country, rule her with iron fist. we will ruthlessly resist any change, use the minorities in the north as tools and never let them have a direction of their own, and use the south as a conquered territory." I might not have quoted him verbatim but the message still tallies with what he said. My point being that I have no faith in using your rigged system anymore because you and I know I have no chance of winning. Lets face it - 5 states of SE cannot out-vote 13 states of the core north in the national assembly -Not gonna happen, we know it. So its asymmetrical, and that's why for me to turn Ahmad Bello's dream into nightmare I have to use asymmetrical approach too. However, I applaud you for believing in the so-called laws even though I expect you to resist me and my likes violently if need be, after all who'll blame you for protecting Dan Fodio's estate. Perhaps I would do the same if I were in your shoes.

ndu, I guess its safe to say debating with you is an empty, but refreshingly funny, exercise nonetheless.

So by your definition, a citizen of Nigeria resident in Kano is a guest because he was born in a different state. Yet, if that citizen desires to cash completely his "guest" check by opting out he's termed a criminal by you and your ilks. Of course you're not the only person guilty of calling others "guests" in Nigeria. As I'm writing, Osun people are being detained by Nigerian police for moving around in their own country and I can't help but marvel at the stupidity of One-Nigeria and its proponents.

While we can all play politics with the Osun issue depending on party leanings, the truth of it is that all these make a mockery of our claim to oneness. So, to see you defend the constant encroachment and erosion of the civil rights and liberties of the people you vow to live with simply because the encroachment was and is still being perpetrated by your extremist brothers is disgusting.

Those beverages were destroyed on religious grounds in a secular state - that is not oneness. In the US, some places ban the sale of alcohol for reasons other than religion, and even at that a whole state does not impose the "dry" law. Besides even if we were to buy into the "guest" thing like you said, what about indigenous citizens of Kano who're not Muslims - are they guest too? Are they not entitled to liquor consumption?

The reason core northern states are poo-pooing on our laws is because we let them get away with entrenched religious fanaticism for too long. But it will interest you to know that my generation will either cut them to size or pull the rug and watch them have their Arewa Republic, the home of the extremists and the land of the "Dry."

[quote author=ndu_chucks]I don't think you want to bring malnourishment, a tool used by you people along with Awo, to perpetrate your criminal war. That's in the past and the hatchets have been buried, stop this impotent threats of yours.

Indeed any threat to the unity and sovereignty of Nigeria will be resisted with full force, just as any sane country will defend its integrity.

The only arena which loudmouths like you have is NL, so go ahead and vent, but I warn you again that if you bring your nonsense into the shores of this great country, you will be dealt with by your very own people severely.


@Sam_Ikenna, If you are welcome into a state as a guest, you must learn to abide by the state and local laws, which are not opposed to the constitution. Even in the USA where you live, there are certain places (called dry zones) where the selling of alchoholic beverages are banned. If you are caught with bottles of beer for sale, they will be confiscated and destroyed, so what is your point?[/quote]Where is the religious "dry zone" in the US - please be specific. Hopefully you're not about to show us a school zone.

we continue to lead.....in IEDs and broken bottles. But we like VAT though.

Kano (Nigeria) (AFP) - Police enforcing Islamic law in Nigeria's city of Kano publicly destroyed some 240,000 bottles of beer on Wednesday, the latest move in a wider crackdown on behaviour deemed "immoral" in the area.
The banned booze had been confiscated from trucks coming into the city in recent weeks, said officials from the Hisbah, the patrol tasked with enforcing the strict Islamic law, known as sharia.

Kano's Hisbah chief Aminu Daurawa said at the bottle-breaking ceremony he had "the ardent hope this will bring an end to the consumption of such prohibited substances".
A large bulldozer smashed the bottles to shouts of "Allahu Ahkbar" (God is Great) from supporters outside the Hisbah headquarters in Kano, the largest city in Nigeria's mainly Muslim north.

Kegs containing more than 8,000 litres of a local alcoholic brew called "burukutu" and 320,000 cigarettes were also destroyed.

"We hope this measure will help restore the tarnished image of Kano," said Daurawa
Since September, the Hisbah have launched sweeping crackdowns and made hundreds of arrests in Kano following a state-government directive to cleanse the commercial hub of so-called "immoral" practices.

The 9,000-strong moral police force works alongside the civilian police but also has other duties, including community development work and dispute resolution.

Sharia was reintroduced across northern Nigeria in 2001, but the code has been unevenly applied.

Alcohol is typically easy to find in Kano, including at hotels and bars in neighbourhoods like Sabon Gari, inhabited by the city's sizeable Christian minority.

But the Hisbah boss vowed that this was set to change.

"We hereby send warning to unrepentant offenders that Hisbah personnel will soon embark on an operation into every nook and corner of (Kano) state to put an end to the sale and consumption of alcohol and all other intoxicants," Daurawa said.

People accused of engaging in prostitution and homosexual sex have been among those arrested in the latest crackdown, along with alleged drunks and drug addicts.

Nigeria is divided between a mostly Christian south and a predominately Muslim north.
