Nothing was twisted...
You forefathers killed leaders of every other tribe but spared yours....

I don't like to address certain issues, the leaders who annulled June 12were mostly from the north I don't see you guys calling it a northern affair but rather a military affair, several other coups took place in Nigeria's history yet there is always an attempt to gaslight a particular ethnic group, Tinubu is leading Nigeria astray with corruption, and nepotism, Tinubu is being criticized as an individual mostly but if Tinubu were igbo, you folks would have rubbed his leadership on the entire igbo ethnic group, I don't think it is a coincidence that Nigeria has had several dark events in his history but only the 1966 coup is being used to revisit history, several coups occured after that they will tell you that that one was an igbo coup, why everyother one was a military coup how convenient. I am not igbo btw, because the default thinking of the bigots is anyone with contrary opinion is igbo.

When my papa was alive, I swear to God, I dey enter Governor's office, governor's house and even governor's private house. We are from same ward from the governor

To burst your bubble, I can't just can't count how many times our then governor came to our house personally, ride on dad's car for disguising.

We are son of an elite not I never chop people

Could you tell us about your own family recognition even in your village?

if you were truly the son of an elite, you wouldn't be the one being given this dehumanising job, my guess is you are just on of those youth, down on his luck, who has nothing working out for him, nothing ambitious to look forward to and then recruited by the APC, and then you think maybe if you can slave dutifully for years you may just climb the political ladder but you know that that is a pipe dream because even though you are a supporter of the APC you are still a bottom feeder, imagine being a bottom feeder in real life and also at the APC, I may be wrong about you though, just my humble assessment.

so y do u people mock people when they claim they are hungry?

Since they didn't vote tinubu y do u mock them?

they voted for him but their vote wasn't enough to make him win, yakubu had to step in to do the dirty job.

You don't know Amunike

I know amunike very well, I know he coached the u17 side, his Tanzania stint wasn't outstanding and that's all about it, so on what ground does he deserve the eagles Job.

profmallor:
interesting perspective, however i still have my reservations. Still find it had to believe this man can do better than Amunike would

if I am to consider home based coaches, I wouldn't place amunike on that list, he hasn't done anything worthy of note to deserve the eagles job.

[quote author= post=133641161]All of us at MANNA hope this one will work and stand the test of time.

Since 1960 our darling nation cannot boast of a national carrier!
What a shame[/quote]as I recall during the buhari's adminstration Nigerian air saga, when it was revealed to be a scam, you where one of the political attack dogs who supported the govt, you guys are so shameless.

profmallor:
Amunike's pedigree is far better than this fake story. I think the Government needs to step in now before the NFF cause Nigeria another heart ache

I know his profile may not be inspiring, but lets look at the reality on ground, if you get a foreign European coach now, he may take time for him to get used to the African football pattern, Nigeria cannot afford to lose any games at the world cup qualifiers, you need someone who understands African football/ teams, another thing of note South Africa is our major opponent for the world cup ticket and this same coach defeated them recently at the last afcon 2 nil, that means he understands South Africa and it's playing pattern, finally the Malian team at the afcon was not bad at all they played great, at the afcon

Shadow225:
She is a conservative, she would definitely support Tinubu.

how does her being conservative signify her support for a criminal,

sulaak:
Mali played brilliant football.

yes a bit against the ivorians, at the quarter finals even though they eventually lost but they played a slightly compact football.

Hmmm, something of note, I watched the last afcon, and I kinda admire the Malian team a bit they played some technical football, they may not have gone far at the tournament, maybe with Nigeria's massive talent he can turn things a bit around, even though his profile isn't inspiring, furthermore, our major focus right now is a world cup ticket, and our opponents are fellow African teams, having someone who has played on the continent and understands African football play, style and pattern may just come in handy than bringing a European coach who may probably need time to understand the African football terrain, note also we don't have the liberty to lose anymore games at the qualifiers as we are almost at the bottom of the table.

"Obviously, neither I nor my advisers need a toilet."

Awon team 'saner climes ' with low self esteem and inferiority complex should see this

a reasonable individual with brains would search the internet for things that can help his nation get better, a fool would look out for nations that are doing onething or the other wrong rather than learn from there mistake, would want his country to feel comfortable in abnormalities just because someone else is doing it, I guess the message for you is that we should be ok and rejoice in abnormalities because someone somewhere is doing the same. Ronu folks and foolishness.

You just brought the nostalgic moments of that AFCON game. It was something else but in Club football,Joselu’s quick-fire brace to turn the tie on its head and propel Madrid to another final against Bayern was nothing short of unforgettable moment for me last year.

Though Madrid is not new to comebacks but that moment was something else for me considering I was in the midst of friends that wanted us out by all means.

damn memories, I felt that moment, Nigeria vs South Africa was intense too.

Nobody has dismissed what farooq is saying .
Some fool are bringing up nnpc gmd since 1900.

That's not the point .
All the MDs of NNPC subsidiaries are 90% yorubas today.

That's the point.

it's pathetic how they all play dump not to see that is one of the main point by the author.

Okphebolo the olodo governor since his inauguration, it's been from one messsy controversy to another.

jazzman7711:
You are very stupid with no sense.

Is Nigeria the only country with problems?

Do you know that 40,000 people are shot dead in America every year?

How many Americans have you seen saying to foreigners or on social media, ''Don't go to America or you will get shot''?

Why are they not saying ''Oh, because our leaders won't solve the gun crime issue, we'll de-market the country and warn the world not to visit America because it is unsafe and insecure'', which is your DUNDERHEAD reasoning?

Can your thick head not find anything good to say about your environment when FOREIGNERS can come in and see it and are broadcasting it to the world? Mr self-hatred and inferiority complex.

The other day it was one Cameroonian guy touring Nigeria and showing the world that this country is actually fast developing, contrary to what is commonly thought, due to Nigerians running down and insulting their country online.

It is your type who go telling foreigners not to visit Nigeria.

YET THEY ALL VISIT AND NOTHING HAPPENS.

This video is for utter idiots like you with no common sense.

Every day, ''leaders, leaders, leaders''.

When the world stereotypes your country negatively due to your LOUD MOUTHS, it will not impact a single ONE of those 'leaders'.

It will impact YOU AND YOUR OFFSPRING who will be shunned by the world in business collaboration, investment, tourism, and everything else.

Stupid people with no sense.

Look at a small girl from South Africa schooling you.

Sense of the big picture: ZERO.

you are obviously the one with no sense, Americans speak up about their issues, gun violence is a thing because the media speaks up about it, Americans also speak up, black lives matter, me too,these are all evidence of Americans speaking up criticizing the Ills of their society, by your foolish thinking I guess Martin Luther King was demarketing America when he was fighting against racism, I guess Nelson Mandela, when he exposed the world to what black south africans were going through under apartheid, Lee Kuan yew when he became prime minister often spoke on the poverty level in Singapore even to international media outlets, why? Because he had a plan to fix it, the only reason why the govt has a serious problem with Nigerians speaking up is because they have no plan to fix these issues, they want you to get comfortable with corruption, lack of development, they want you to settle for whatever they offer no matter how mediocre and they pay brain dead zombies like you to defend them, the guy you quoted is right, it is the govt actions that demarkets a nation, Nigerians are migrating to south korea, Australia canada, because these nations are good countries was it an average Canadian that sold Canada to Nigerians?, do you see Canadians online marketing Canada to Nigeria? How many Nigerians do you know who relocated to Australia simply because they saw Australian marketing Australia to them? You mumu no be small.

NaMe4:
The Ikwerres have always been a distinct people and asserted their identity. The Igbos have always tried to play these games especially from the colonial periods. There are a lot of accounts from even Dutch and English colonialists and explorers narrating how Igbos always delibrately attempted to subdue the Ikwerre (and other groups) language(s). There are documented accounts from these people.

One of their gimmicks (up till today in their pursuit of biafra) is delibrately attempting to make their language a dominant language over the indiginous language(s), then give false narratives of history.

Additionally, in the pre-colonial era, one of the major factors which necessitated many of these indigenous groups make efforts at learning the Igbo language was for trade; especially during the slave trade era when Igbos were mostly sold as slaves by fellow Igbos, and indigenes in these coastal areas acted as middlemen. There was no structured educational system which would have necessitated the use of a lingua franca such as English as we have today. Unfortunately, such system has further made many descendants of various groups lose understanding of their languages.

That's why delibrate attempts MUST be made to ensure indigenes have good command of their indigenous languages. Majority of your radio stations and other media, when not using the official lingua franca of Nigeria (English) should broadcast in your local indigenous languages.

The so-called leaders in these areas MUST rise up to their responsibilities or considered sabotuers.

true words

kingsways:
Changes nothing if someone is misguided.

An Igbo man will not stop being Igbo because a few people are misguided

I will never accept that Ikwerres are not Igbos unless they all change their names and stop speaking Igbo Language

Someone must explain to me why Ikwerres speak Igbo Language

my own theory is this, I think historically the ikwerrre ethnic group comprised of majority of people who migrated from other ethnic group, we have heard a theory of the ikwerrre migrating from Benin, I think also some also migrated from the south east too, so each clan has its own origin history you might meet an ikwerrre man who identify as igbo maybe because his ancestry confirms it, you might meet another who hates to identify as igbo also because his ancestry may not be from the south east, another might also identify with the Benin kingdom probably because his ancestry is from there, now on why they all bear igbo names this might also be due to ethnic dominance for centuries, by this I think the ikwerrre ethnic group does not have a singular ancestry and they know this just my theory.

Just this once, I'd just tell you: you are not exactly bright. If you studied law, I am sure you had an "E" in Evidence Law. Even a dunce knows that video evidence is admissible if it satisfies certain requirements.

I suggest you give Section 84 of the Evidence Act to your Rottweiler to read and explain it to you, since you are irreparably dull to read it and understand, which may have prevented you from humiliating yourself and the university that awarded you a degree. Also see the ruling on video evidence by the Supreme Court. I know you won't understand because you barely passed Evidence Law after carrying it over twice, that the Dean of Law had to give you a pass so you'd stop embarrassing the faculty and the university.

Please I can't waste time on your sick reasoning again.

so who gets to decide, the police or the judge? You keep talking of evidence law, when the accused was never charged to court, people like you represent all that is wrong in society, you know nothing stop embarrassing yourself.

Northern leaders need to sit up

CAF award dates ain't fixed

I know but it usually takes place in the year specifically towards the end, while next year's afcon will take place from dec 2025 to Jan 2026 unless the CAF awards for 2025 is shifted to 2026.

femi4:
Not enough, next yr is afcon year...it will count

afcon will happen in December 2025, after the CAF player of the year award would have been announced, afcon 2025 can only influence CAF player of the year 2026

LordBiden:
For those criticising this move,ask yourself whether you prefer the president and his aides to ride on a danfo bus instead of bulletproof vehicles.

It cost alot buying and maintaining them,if you must criticize pls do that with sense.

Not a Tinubu fan.

mumu people everywhere, they spent billions last year to buy vehicles for these same people, the year before that same thing, billions was also spent to renovate the villa last year so vehicles will be changed every year, mumu people like this are the reason govt will continue using una head, foolish people everywhere.

really impressive.

geoworldedu:
Lol, mention them apart from Etoo and Mboma, who are the others?

there was an award given for Africa's best before CAF started it's own award, combining that to the recent CAF award which began in 1993 given cameroon I think 11 awards.

Be fooling your fellow ipob,s ! We know if it’s you ipob,s now,this page would have grown to 50 pages!

this is one way to identify these idiots, just claim everyone with contrary opinion is igbo, shame.

Thunderfayamods:
It is not politicians it is the people especially IGBOS. Since they lost the election nearly everybody turned their enemies especially Yorubas. If you check you will see that it wasn't bad like this under Buhari.

not true it is the other way round, I am not igbo so don't think I am being bias, while both side has a number of idiots, but the yoruba folks are the major culprits here, your observation about the election is wrong, when Tinubu ran for president he was being criticized as an individual candidate, while obi was being criticized for being igbo,and this narrative was spearheaded by the yoruba folks especially the Ronu gang, the yoruba folks are by far the greater tribalist as far as this forum is concerned, that's just the fact.

Ganjafama:
You guys are just so annoying. When Osimhen won it Edo people didn't go about trash talking other tribes.

I swear, Tinubu just created a bunch of monsters, they think everything is politics and tribalism, very shameful people, everybody in nigeria was in support of lookman, yet this idiots will always make it look otherwise. Congratulations to ademola, very well deserved.

Dittodat:
Story
Tinubu will still win enough votes in the North to win the next election, that's if he's even interested.
Honestly speaking, Tinubu has some flaws but he's the kind of leader that any country needs to develop.

This is a man who is more interested in doing what is right for long term development than what he needs to win the next election.
Tinubu could have continued with the same tired policies of past leaders, petrol would have gone up may be by another 100 Naira in the next 4 years and he would have easily won reelection but he's not concerned about that. He's more interested in what he believes will be good for the country in the long run.

the kind of leader that spends scarce resources on a presidential private jet when it's citizens are living in extreme poverty, the only reason why he is so confident on his actions without fear of losing voters support is because he never came in through the ballot, he didn't become president through the masses, so why should he care, the inec, judiciary and massive looted state wealth are all at his disposal these were the factors that brought him to power, so why should he care about his anti- people policies.

EmirAsheBaba:
Those Military Officers 🪖 were die in the hands of Okuama Community just like that without any reason, Are there not Humans or Is Blood not Running in their Veins?
The people of these Country is the total problem of the Country, by not learning to do Justice in any circumstances or situation we found ourselves.
Please where in these African 🌍 Countinent you will find these kind of ugly actions done by people because of misunderstanding between them and the Military Officers 🪖, nowhere such issues occur expect in these Country (Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬).
Please we should always learn how respect 🙏 👏 our Uniform Men in due course, at any moment or point in time ⏲...

so where is the evidence that these are the people who murdered he military men, so if an attack happens in your community are you saying it would be ok for the military to kill you and your entire family? Why some people mumu like this my gawd.

Johnn74:
You yourself said Terrorists----that explains it!

A soldier or police going to fight
Deadly terrorists, Armed robbers, knows he might not return and has kissed his family goodbye!

But come on, these are civilians communities that Armed forces were sent on PEACE KEEPING MISSION. just a regular civic job .

Normal people civilians just quarreling at least respect Emissaries , Local traditional chiefs , local government chairmen, Royal Father's , Religious Leaders ,sent on peace keeping.

They did not come to fight or fight War or tankers to exchange Fire as in the case of armed robbers or Terrorists battle.
The brutal murdering. Of the soldiers is highly condemnable and so uncalled for!!!!!

Fools who reason like this are the reason Nigeria can never work, imagine what a suppose adult is saying, so if an attack happens it your community it would be ok for the army to just kill your father, mother, siblings spouse and children because it is their duty to protect the military, a billionaire healthcare executive was recently murdered in New York I never saw the Nypd arresting everyday citizens, so if the army is coming to your neighborhood it is our duty to protect them otherwise, what happens to investigation even the army knows these are not the killers of their colleagues but just as typical cowards that they are they just had to kill innocent civillians, for the sake of the argument I really hope you are under age that's the only way I can forgive such level of foolishness.
