Nigerians are abusing their increased internet access, this trend of presenting rumours as official statements is becoming as bad as the internet scams we were doing in the past. I remember when that useless site abusididqu.com claimed that those arrested election observers in IMO were accredited by INEC and even brought out fake statement from INEC, only for INEC to make a contradicting statement a few days later. Propaganda from all sides is becoming a serious issue in Nigerian politcs, people should try to independently confirm stories from credible sources before reacting.

Is there any credible source to this news? That website is as fake as Abusidiqu.com. Rochas has stated categorically several times in the past that he hasn't taken any loan from anywhere, he challenged those accusing him of borrowing to bring proofs. Until now I haven't heard or seen any proof that Rochas has been borrowing money. All baseless rumours.

Have you noticed the automatic "defense mode" reflex action a lot of Igbos exhibit when confronted
with the facts of their region?
It will take real soul searching and deliberate sacrifices for the Igbos to swallow their pride,
focus and resolve their own issues and actualize most of their goals.
I am strongly convinced the Igbos being the third leg of the so-called WAZOBIA contraption need to either
shape up or get out of the way for Nigeria to move forward.
They hold a major key to national leadership/development and seem to be not aware of it.
Thing is other minorities surrounding Igbo land are wising up and will be wooed by the SW and North to sideline
the Igbos and take up the mantle of shared political leadership...which we know they'll gladly accept.
My 2 cents.

You were making sense until this your post, it seems like you finally let out your true nature here. So the Igbos are actually the ones holding Nigeria backwards? The mass illiteracy in the north isn't an obstacle to Nigeria's development right? The series of bad leadership from the north and west has nothing to do with it right?
Once the Igbos get out of the way Nigeria will automatically develop? What kind of reasoning is that?

This is not a laughing matter, those who are after her life are masters when it comes to the act of assasination. It is a recognised political tool in their culture.
Here is a list of victims from their region.

mtsheew the same man that said gej is going to lose election in 2011

Wow the ape actually predicted that Jonathan will lose the 2011 elections and Nigeria will divide then. How he still has the guts to make further predictions after that blunder is beyond me.

Don Demu: Whenever news with a yoruba or hausa person in diaspora is being mentioned, i sure know it is good news. But nna mehnn.... if na dem erm erm

Like Adebolajo and Abdulmutallab?

Obasanjo ruled Nigeria for 15 out of our 53 independent years, what did he achieve? He should be booed everywhere he goes.

berem: If that will bring to an end the mess called Nigeria, I concur totally!

The question is, will it bring an end to a mess called you? When you spend all your day jumping from thread to thread making brainless comments, you end up blaming Nigeria for your problems.

Ajibola , Akintokun, Tope, Iya Osa, Bashiru, Lekan shame on you all.

chamboy: Tribalism have killed does Igbo ppl,
Take a statistics of marriage in nigeria.
You will. See that it rare for an Igbo man to marry frm other tribes
they are d least frm stats that marry women outside deir tribe.....

Bring the stats here let us see idîot.

Obasanjo alone ruled Nigeria for a total of 15 out of the 53 years since independence. Any time we are discussing Nigeria's problems Obasanjo should be the first name mentioned. Those who want to tribalise this thread should look closer home.

free2ryhme: there are countries where Christianity is banned

And they didn't get attacked by terrorists as a result

Peinstein: Now they have attracted the attention of terrorists. As a christian, I must say this is totally unnecessary cos I wouldn't like it if christianity is banned from a country. If islam is not an influential religion in Angola why decide to ban it ? And if it is gaining popularity why ban it?
I hope it isn't a result of fear of terrorism, being an islamist doesn't make you a terrorist, being a terrorist doesn't make yóu an islamist.

Bla bla bla but you said it yourself that they have attracted the attention of terrorists by banning islam. What does that say about the religion?

Na wa for Isa Muazu o!
Apart from his name, he is also exhibiting that extremist mentality by going on such a long hunger strike.
They wouldn't want a potential terrorist in their country.

Promiscuity.

PhenomenonVFX: I will advise all u Igbos to talk to urselves when u go home this december. This year alone should be an eye opener for u guys. Instead of showing off ur wealth to one another this Christmas, u should put heads together and discuss d way forward.

Precisely! I wonder what they discuss in those development union meetings

asha 80: i hope you know you the one that started the comparision?read your opening post well.

You are right, he started the comparison, but we shouldn't deviate from the matter at hand.

iterator25: wats this one saying

Thay guy is South Africa's version of Musiwa

Okay someone already made the point I was trying to make, this is precisely my point.
I don't get it when people are always clamouring for Presidency from their own tribe.

Finally,with privatization of
government assets going on, what matters to
us now is no more Igbo presidency as you are hammering on but our people investing
heavily in the private sector and opening up
southeast for business and employment
opportunities. How many presidents of Nigeria
have ever changed their locality apart from
their family members? I am a person don't belief in such sentiments. Cheta ulo ndaa jeo!

Igbo Presidency this, Igbo Presidency that. What exactly is an average Igbo man supposed to benefit from an Igbo man becoming President? What did an average Yoruba man benefit from Obasanjo's total of 15 years rule? How have Ijaws benefitted from Jonathan so far?
