Human Right: is a freedom giving to Islamic terrorists and jihad to kill and destroy every other human who does not have the same belief with them.
I hope you have gotten the answer?

Are you on weed
seriously

@BY1434, If I must tell you the truth, the first step to this is to put our religious differences apart and then look at the issue holistically. Most cases of suicide bombing were associated with the use of long hijabs. So, to really nip the bud of this inhumane killing, don't you think something has to be done to it in as much as it is been used as a tool for mass killing?

sinsce you think hijab should be ban because it's been used as a tools for killing then what would you say to ur Godfathers like America, Israel and their likes for producing weapons every day which is often unlike hijab that is been use as a tool for killing but itself is a tool for mass killing.

NYSC is Para-Millitary and should be handled as such. It would be ridiculous to say Muslim women in the Nigerian Army,Police,Customs,Civil defence should be Joining Hijab to their Uniforms. Those who cannot conform to the dress code of the NYSC should write for exemption simple

Pls stop exposing ur ignorance. Muslims wear hijabs in all thay are doing and the forces you had mentioned is not exemption though there is very less or no muslims women in army, police and customs but go and check female muslim in pilots you would undersand how uninformative you are.

What a scene... non muslims always want to see
the secret body of our beloved beautiful muslim
women and this DG sef is not exempted...

I see a lot of seconded comments here only for
eye services? Guys wake up, seeing this adorable

Sorry.

It’s always the best politicians and those that
has political consciousness and patience that
laid strategies. Others act hurriedly without any
plan in desperation and hunger to grab power
and get relevance at all cost. The latter doesn’t
last long, even if the former failed. Another
strategy will be implored until desire goal is
achieved or they will continue to strike until they
exceed their last resort before given up. Even
after that, there will always be an underground
move and waiting for available opportunity to
strike.

After the emergence of Senator Bukola Saraki as
the Senate President and the chairman of 8th
Assembly, a lot has been said with different
theories and various degree of injuries were
caused as a result of mudslinging and character
defamation. We do hope that the wound will be
allowed to heal without having super imposed
infection. And that would have been easy if the
Code Of Conduct case would be settle outside
court.

For someone to fully appreciate what political
grudges or grievances was, one must be able to
understand the difference between toying
(manoeuvering) against betrayal (treachery) in
political context. To kowtow a fellow, one needs
to toy with him but to inveigled a person, you
must betrayed him. With that knowledge, one
may be able to come into conclusion that
whether Saraki’s case was politically motivated
or not, but it’s crystal clear to those with open
eyes if not open mind that there is an element
of witch-hunt in that case.

History has shown that there are stages that are
being taken by strategist in other to block
unwanted element from emerging and if it
subsequently emerged, there are steps to be
taking so as to clipped it wings. Now the big
question is, who are those that are after Saraki
and would they be able to proceed after CCT
trial?

Customarily, strategist first used “moral ground
or god fatherism” to stop any unwanted
politician from emerging. Had it been that APC
successfully used moral ground like zoning to
stop Saraki, or the purported meeting called by
Mr president at international conference centre
was held, The emergence of Saraki as senate
president may not be possible. Even though the
LikeMinds group have seen it coming therefore
‘boycott’ or claimed ignorance of such gathering
which was organised by the party bigwigs in
order to used the influence and charisma of
president Muhammadu Buhari to decide who get
the leadership of the 8th Assembly.

The emergence of Bukola Saraki as the Senate
President necessitates the furthering of the
second step which is “blocking resources or
clipping wings”. Immediately after APC decide
to work with the leadership of the 8th Assembly,
a phenomenon called party supremacy and
queuing with party policy was initiated which aim
to clip Saraki’s wings but that didn’t come to be
as the sizable number of the senate passed vote
of confidence on their leader.

Third step; Calumny/Propaganda campaign. This
must tally with the growing trend at that
moment and must be something that will quickly
get people attention. Like when patriotism was
paramount in Nigeria, Chief Obafemi Awolowo
was accused of being a traitor and he was jailed
to end his era. Prior to the formation of APC,
tribe and religion was used to blocked President
Muhammadu Buhari from getting Nigerians
acceptance by depicting him as tribal bigot and
religious fanatic. That’s why its laughable to
those that know history, the attempt of some
media wit to trace Saraki antecedents with Kano
and Danfodio’s empire in order to make him loss
relevance in the eye of Yoruba race. The idea of
using tribe and religion was exhausted on PMB
and it can not be used recently.

With growing concern over the issue of stopping
corruption and other corrupt act by this
administration, the resurgent of Saraki’s family
Bank case and the alleged false assets
declaration stuff, the strategist has now get
something to ridicule the dignity and prestige of
Sen. Bukola Saraki. It’s hard for one to escape
this stage because of its intrigue and twisted
nature.

When it became apparent to vested interest that
the issue of religion and tribe will no longer stop
the candidacy of General Muhammadu Buhari
with APC in the saddle, they had to move to the
next step which is “Threat” and that was
believed to be the reason behind kaduna attack
on Buhari’s convoy.

Most of the assassination cases of politicians
and leaders alike, are those that were able to
scale through the bundle of calumny and
propaganda campaign. My problem is not for
Saraki to win or lose at Code of Conduct Tribunal
because either way there will be a demanding
consequence, but let the matter be settle out of
court because the next step will be very difficult
to handle in terms of witch-hunt as there will be
a lot of groan under the weight of political
bigwigs. The future wistfulness can be aborted if
the grievances will be wipeout.

Note; Threat is the 4th stage while Creating fifth
column is the last resort.

The Scene of the BUK blast that killed about 20
people including two professors


Augustine Effiong, 25, an indigene of Akwa
Ibom State, who is popularly known as
Abubakar Garba said on Monday that he
helped carry out deadly attacks on April 29
at church services in the old campus of the
Bayero University, Kano (BUK) and
admitted belonging to the extremist group,
Boko Haram in his confession to police.

The State Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim
Idris who disclosed this in a press
statement made available to reporters said
that, Mr Effiong had confessed to be one
of those behind the attack on Christian
worshipers at BUK.

Mr Effiong, though an indigene of Akwa
Ibom was born and brought up at Maiduguri
before he later converted to Islam. The
police said, “he has been transferred to
Abuja for discreet investigations”.

The command said Mr Effiong was arrested
over an attempt to murder a civilian at
Danlasan Village in Warawa Local
Government Area of Kano state.

During the preliminary investigation, the
suspect, a resident of Bulunkutu Abuja
Quarters in Maiduguri confessed to have
relocated to the Kano state last April.

“He confessed to have participated in a
series of attacks, killing of policemen and
military personnel in the state (Kano),
including the recent attack and killings in
Bayero University Kano (BUK),” the police
said.

Attackers with bombs and guns opened fire
at church services at BUK last month and
killed about 20 people including two
professors as worshippers tried to flee.

“I was involved in the attack at BUK,” he
told reporters in Hausa.

He further confessed to being part of a
“20-man killer squad” charged with
targeting the security services around
Kano.

Boko Haram has repeatedly targeted the
security services in Kano and has claimed
attacks that have killed more than 1,000
people since mid-2009.

“I killed many people, including five
soldiers at checkpoints,” in Kano, Mr
Effiong said.

The former Catholic school student was believed
to be in Syria - before it emerged he was killed
in a major police raid in northern Paris

Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the suspected mastermind
behind the Paris attacks, died during a major
police raid in a northern suburb of the French
capital.

Officials confirmed Abaaoud was the target of
the operation that developed into a siege in St
Denis on Wednesday, as more details emerged
about the man thought to have arranged the
shootings which killed 129 people on Friday
night.

Now a prominent member of Isis, Abaaoud
first travelled to Syria last year - but seemingly
not out of any great religious motivation.
"He did not even go to the mosque,” his older
sister Yasmina told the New York Times earlier
this year.

Like many who travel to the so-called “Islamic
State”, his actions appear to have been
motivated more by a thirst for power, violence
and unaccountability.

Who was Abdelhamid Abaaoud, mastermind of
the Paris attacks?

Abaaoud, in his late 20s, was born in Belgium
and grew up in the Brussels suburb of
Molenbeek, which has become a key focus for
investigators in recent days.

He briefly studied at an exclusive Catholic
school, before either dropping out or getting
expelled and drifting into a life of thievery and
drugs.

Abdelhamid Abaaoud boasted of his escape from
authorities in Belgium following a failed
terrorist attack in an interview published in Isis'
propaganda magazine in February.

According to his family, the young man showed
much more interest in petty crime than Islam,
and they were shocked when he took his 13-
year-old brother Younes with him to travel to
Syria in January 2014.

After he was trained and further radicalised in
Syria, Abaaoud was able to return to Europe via
Athens. He was picked up by European security
services and reportedly even stopped by police
but let go, after which he disappeared.

Officials identified the suspected mastermind as
Abaaoud, a Belgian of Moroccan origin in his
late twenties.

In February, he gave an interview to the Islamic
State English-language magazine Dabiq which
suggested he was in Syria.

In the interview he claimed he had travelled to
Belgium to "terrorise the crusaders waging war
against the Muslims".

He also claimed a police officer who stopped him
had failed to recognise him even after his
picture had been sold to the media.

He said: "I was even stopped by an officer who
contemplated me so as to compare me to the
picture, but he let me go, as he did not see the
resemblance!"

Abaaoud claimed he was able to travel “safely”
back to Syria when it suited him. He said: “I was
able to leave and come to Sham (Syria) despite
being chased by so many intelligence agencies.
“All this proves that a Muslim should not fear
the bloated image of the crusader intelligence.
My name and picture were all over the news yet
I was able to stay in their homeland, plan
operations against them, and leave safely when
doing so became necessary.”

Abaaoud is believed to have had links to
previous foiled terror attacks in France,
including one on a Paris-bound high-speed
train that was thwarted when passengers
overpowered a gunman in August. He was
thought to have been involved in the attack
remotely from Syria – a theory thrown into
doubt by this week’s developments.

Tips for the second test
Ensure you read the title of the tables/charts properly.
For fast percentage difference eg by wat percentage is 20 greater than 17..just do 20/17 then subtract 1..that'll give you the percentage..
Then by what percentage is 17 less than 20..wud be 17/20..then subtract the answer from 1

For quick percentage increment multiply by (1 + percentage) eg increase 28 by 12 %.. 28 * 1.12

For ratios, use you eyes.. Eg 11. 1 : 5.9 is very close to 11:6

Buhari name will surely be in the Guinness book for killing democracy in Nigeria. The judge in taraba tribunal is acting on a script from the APC. Declaring a fulani woman governor of taraba is like. Imposing a christian governor in kano state. She did nt win the election by total votes cast so why will APC rejoice that it is a victory for democracy.? Buhari will be in the Guinness book of record for supporting Gaza strip to gain independence and yet detained mr Kalu. Buhari will be in the Guinness book of record for telling lies during campaign. He might also be in the Guinness book of record as the last president of Nigeria

The guy i quoted should Go and kiss transformer

Lalasticlala come help wailers get something to cry

President of the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick has said that President Muhammadu Buhari is worthy of a bold mention in the Guinness Book of Records.

The NFF boss said this on Monday in Santiago as he boarded a flight to Buenos Aires on the way back home from a success story at the FIFA U-17 World Cup in Chile.

According to a post that appeared on the NFF, Pinnick said: “Yes, it is a success story as you just mentioned, but it would not have ended that way without the great support that the Nigeria Football Federation continues to receive from the President Muhammadu Buhari –led Federal Government.

“In fact, the Nigeria Football Federation is dedicating this triumph to President Buhari. He is a man of history. He was there when the first set won the trophy in 1985 as military Head of State; now he is here as civilian President when the Class of 2015 emerged victorious.

Seriously speaking, I don’t think there is any Head of State or Government in the entire universe who has this honour, and for this, our PMB deserves a place in the Guinness Book of Records.”

Pinnick, whose one–year administration can now point to successes at the African Women Championship (Namibia 2014), African Youth Championship (Senegal 2015) and now the Eaglets’ triumph (aside qualifications for several major tournaments), insisted on Monday that the masterstroke for the Eaglets’ confident and determined approach was President Buhari’s call to the team a day earlier.

“We appreciate the President for sparing time out of his very tight schedule to talk to each and every player and official. That was a massive motivation. At the end of the conversation, the players told me they would go all out and give whatever it would take to win, having been inspired by the country’s leader.

“Football is a potent and huge tool for national unity and the focus of the present NFF administration is to build a sustainable football culture for our country. Triumphs are good, but we must not overlook the sustainable culture.

” The NFF President assured that his administration would be strongly involved in the players’ development, unlike what happened in the past. “People have talked about monitoring the players. We would do more than that. We would be part of their developmental programs and seamless transition to senior categories.

“We are very happy with this victory because it gives us the opportunity to present to our dear PMB his first global crown on his return as civilian President.”

Pannick, a member of the Organizing Committee for the FIFA U-20 World Cup, and who joined the dignitaries to hand out the medals in Vina del Mar on Sunday, hinted that the NFF already has other targets in its immediate radar.

“Of course, we are celebrating. But I can tell you that our focus has already shifted to the Africa U-23 Cup of Nations in Senegal. It is important that we earn
a ticket to the men’s football tournament of next year’s Olympics in Brazil.

“We will give Samson Siasia’s squad all the support to win the ticket. And of course, we have also concluded arrangements to ensure the Super Eagles defeat Swaziland in the race for the 2018 FIFA World Cup starting with the first leg in Lobamba on Friday,” said Pinnick, as he congratulated the U-20 women national team, Falconets, for earning a ticket to the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup after beating South Africa’s Basetsana on Sunday.

To married men

If a state Governor can squeezed his time to take his wife out for a dinner in spite of his tied engagements and the diligence then what excuse do you have?? Don't tell me you are busy because your office may not be as busy as the Governor's office.. Governor Nasir El-Rufai.

Oya lalasticlala do the needfulllllllllll

He is not only displaying good leadership in office but also demonstrating how to make his wife feel loved and that's leadership.

He has time for his FAMILY, his FRIENDS, his RELIGION plus his BOOKS even.. The idea is if you know how to balance the equation then half of your problems could be solved.

Exactly eight years ago, Rotimi Chibuike
Amaechi, former governor of Rivers state, and
Ezenwo Nyesom Wike, now governor of the state,
were best of friends.

By “exactly eight years ago”, I truly mean
October 26, 2007. Just one day earlier, the
supreme court had declared Amaechi governor
of the state, saying he was the rightful
candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) having won the party’s primary, rather
than Celestine Omehia, whom the party fielded.
At the time, Wike, as chairman of Obio-Akpor
local government and national president of the
Association of Local Governments of Nigeria
(ALGON), greatly supported Amaechi’s campaign.
They were buddies. So happy were they that
after Omehia was booted out of office, Amaechi
appointed Wike his chief of staff – a position
that governors traditionally allot to their most
trusted ally.

Fast-forward eight years later and both men
would not just see eye-to-eye. It was Amaechi
who nominated Wike for ministerial appointment
under the presidency of Goodluck Jonathan. But
after Amaechi fell out with Jonathan and left
PDP, Wike chose to side with not his old boss but
his new one. Although both men have been at
daggers drawn ever since, it is only in 2015 that
the real battles have been fought; and so far, it
is Amaechi who is having the upper hand.

2015 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, 1-0

As a minister in Jonathan’s cabinet and as a
Rivers state governorship aspirant under the PDP
ticket, Wike staunchly opposed the candidature
of APC’s Muhammadu Buhari, whose campaign
was spearheaded by Amaechi. With Buhari
polling a total of 15,424,921 votes ahead of
Jonathan’s 12,853,162, not only did Nigeria have
a new, Amaechi secured his first victory over his
former ally-turned-enemy.

MINISTERIAL NOMINATION, 2-0

Life is full of ironies. Or how does one explain
that the chief antagonist of a ministerial
nominee is the same one who once became a
minister on the recommendation of the current
nominee? Amaechi nominated Wike to be
minister when he was governor, but Wike has
been the most vociferous opponent of Amaechi’s
ministerial nomination by President Muhammadu
Buhari.

To Wike, Amaechi is too corrupt to be minister.
Once, he branded his predecessor the most
corrupt public office holder . “If Buhari is
sincere in his fight against corruption, let him
probe the Amaechi’s government and he will
discover that there cannot be a government
official that is more corrupt than Amaechi,” he
said through Opunabo Inko-Tariah, his special
adviser on media and publicity, shortly
before the president released the first list of
nominees.

Of course, Amaechi had unkind words of his
own, once describing Wike as a man who would
betray his mother for money. “Nyesom Wike loves
and worships money; he can betray his mother
for money – nothing more, nothing less,” he had
said two days before the election that Wike
‘won’.

At some point, it did seem Amaechi would not
even be screened by the senate, much less
emerge a minister. Time after time, his
screening was postponed following allegations of
corruption to the tune of N70bn by Rivers state
senators. Finally, on Thursday October 22,
Amaechi was screened.

Although George Sekibo, a PDP senator from
Rivers, has warned that it is a thing to be
screened and another to be confirmed minister,
Amaechi, based on the reception he enjoyed at
the screening, can count on his confirmation
later this week. In any case, to have been
screened alone is itself one more victory over his
tormentor-in-chief. Two nil.

RIVERS GOVERNORSHIP TUSSLE, 3-0

This is not closed yet, but it is quite some drama.
Wike must have thought he had pulled one
victory over Amaechi, whose candidate, Dakuku
Peterside, he outwit by 1,029,102 votes
to 124,896. In Nigerian politics, victory at the
polls is hardly the real victory; almost every
election loser goes to court, and the winner
never really emerges until the legal options have
been exhausted.

Now, after the first legal option, the election
petition tribunal, it does seem Wike has a
massive battle in his hands. The tribunal has
nullified his victory at the polls, and ordered
fresh elections within 90 days. Jubilant Amaechi
knows he has secured his third straight victory
over Wike.

But then, like it does happen in a game of
football, even a three-nil deficit advantage can
quickly be overturned. In doubt? Ask the Saudi
’89 Flying Eagles, who were losing four nil to the
Soviet Union as at the 61st minute, only to score
four goals in 23 minutes before going on to win
5-3 on penalties.

Perhaps Wike will recover in due course to show
Amaechi that the servant can, at times,
outshine the master. But, for now, it’s Amaechi
3 – 0 Wike.

*Check where she places her hands

Lekan Abayomi, New York

I was born in 1975. I grew up believing that
the Hausa/Fulani of Nigeria were a very
intolerant ethnic group of people.

That the Hausas were so wicked they simply
picked on Igbos in Nigeria living up North
and slaughtered them in droves. And that
the unprovoked massacre of Igbos in the
North prompted the Biafra secession event,
which again resulted in another Hausa
Muslim leadership-led slaughter and
genocide of Igbos in the South.

I believed for the first two decades of my
life that the Hausa Muslims for no reason
despised Igbos so much and that they ruled
Nigeria almost entirely throughout its 50
years post independence, never giving an
Igbo an opportunity to rule.

I associated Military rule and Military coups
with Muslim Northerners.

I even associated the North of Nigeria with
Islam and the South with Christianity.
‘Roughly divided’ between the two, as I
always read in the news.

Little did I know that I was wrong in almost
everything I grew up reading from the
Nigeria predominantly Southern press, and
European media.

They say that had Hitler won the war,
history today would have been written in his
favor. Perhaps the one great mistake the
Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri and all Northerners
ever made was not getting involved in
western media, press and propaganda.


No Beef Till ’66

Igbos draw first blood in 1966

All was going well in Nigeria, post 1960 independence, with Tafawa Balewa, aka, the golden voice of Africa, the Prime minister of the federation, and Nnamidi
Azikiwe the commander in chief and president, till January 1966.

In January 1966 an Igbo Major in the
Nigerian army, Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu,
who was born in Kaduna and had such
family affinity to Kaduna, that he was
popularly called, ‘Kaduna Nzeogwu’, a
Catholic by faith decided to embark on a
mission that will change Nigeria’s history
forever.

In the early hours of January 15th, Kaduna
Nzeogwu disgruntled over a list of items with
the ruling political class and with disdain
for certain regionalists, led an army of
fellow Igbo Majors and a Yoruba,
Ademoyega Adewale, in a military coup
against the political leadership of Nigeria.
He and his team of Igbo comrades
murdered Nigeria’s top brass Hausas in that
Coup. Prime minister, Tafawa Balewa, a
federal minister and two top regional
premiers were among those murdered.

Kaduna Nzeogwu’s Igbo squad killed he
premier of the Northern and Western
regions but of course left the Igbo Eastern
premiere alive.

He killed the Finance minister, who was
Nigeria’s #3 man, but left the number #2
man.

The coup started failing when the ethnic
nature of it was noticed. Neogwu confronted
Captain Isong , the second-in-command at
the 1 Recce Squadron, on account of a
rumor that Isong was allegedly spreading in
the barracks about the ethnic coloration of
the unfolding events.

Azikiwe was left alive.

In essence Kaduna Nzeogwu’s coup was not a
coup against the establishment only, but a
targeted ethnic war, waged by himself and
his fellow Igbo patriots against the Hausa-
Fulani, who he grew up and served with.

Nzeogwu assassinated very many top
Northern brass. Included and very
significant was the Sardauna of Sokoto who
was shot dead with his wives too.

In the video below, late Kaduna Nzeogwu
describes how he plotted the coup and killed
the Sardauna.


Wikipedia- The killing of Brigadier Ademulegun’s pregnant wife by led to the suspicion among Yoruba and Hausa that the coupist were common criminals rather than Nationalistic patriots. Brigadier Ademulegun was a Yoruba officer. The premier of the
Northern region was killed, The premier of the West was killed, but the premier of the Eastern region where most of the plotters were from was forgotten. On the Federal level the Prime Minister was killed, the Finance Minister the number 3 man was killed but the number 2 man who “coincidentally” happened to be
from the same region as the plotters “escaped the killing”. The kid glove with which the new leader Ironsi handled the coupist led to the dissatisfaction of northern officers with Ironsi’s reluctance to courts-martial the coup plotters led to the counter- coup of July 29, 1966 which was led mainly by a group of junior Hausa-Fulani officers.

The coup plot failed and just before
midnight on January 16, following a
complex series of events, the GOC of the
Army, General Aguiyi Ironsi, also of Igbo
origin, preceded by a short statement by
acting President Nwafor Orizu, announced
that he was taking over the country
following an “invitation” from the Council of
Ministers.

Brigadier Ademulegun was shot dead in his
bed, head of the NMTC Colonel Ralph
Shodeinde was killed. Ifeajun in high
treachery murdered his boss, Brigadier
Maimalari.

The Igbo victim was, Lt-Col Arthur Unegbe.
Also killed was the highly unsung Itsekiri
Finance Minister Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh.
It is important to pint out at this juncture,
that Nigeria had been very peaceful. A
progressive, ethno-harmonious place, with
the only riots of note being some election
turmoil in the western Yoruba region of the
country and Tiv riots in the Middle-Belt.
Up until this time there was no major
Hausa-Igbo beef.

There were episodes pre-independence,
during colonial rule, triggered by the
machinations of colonialism, these included
the minor 1945 Amalgamation riots and the
1953 Igbo Military and political power
predominance riots. The colonialist gave
Igbos top positions in the Military. Indeed,
over all it must be noted that the prime
source of Nigeria’s ethnic disarray is
colonial. ‘Nigeria, made in the UK’, they
say.

Sardauna Was Premiere Of
North Only: It’s Stupid To
Expect Him To Talk Of One-
Nigeria During The Three Region
Federalism That Existed At The
Time

Important to mention that
Sardauna is often
mispresented. Sardauna was
not a leader of Nigeria but was
only leader over the northern
protectorate. So his statements
were about his northern region,
just as at the time Ojukwu
made even more
seditious statements about the
eastern region he presided
over. Sardauna’s utterances
must be listened to in context
of the then true Federation
with three autonomous parts.

Next Blunder- Aguiyi-Ironsi Dissolves
Regions

You see, growing up, I have blamed the
Hausas for so much. May the Almighty
forgive me.

Today the South of Nigeria are heard loudly
clamoring for a return to autonomic
regions. You are want to believe that it was
some Northern Muslim that dissolved this.

No.

The Igbo top commander and now first
military president of Nigeria, General Aguiyi
Ironsi, in a very careless and thoughtless
move, aimed at suppressing the Nzeogwu
ethnic coup sentiment and distrust, in his
brief six months of reign, dissolved the
regions.

So we ask the question- why did Aguiyi
Ironsi dissolve the regions and create a
Unitary republic?

This according to World News.com was ‘in a
bid to do away with the divisive tendencies
of Regionalism.’

At this stage, we can conclude the
following-

1. An Igbo man, Kaduna Nzeogwu embarked
on the first ethnic identifying campaign for
power

2. Same Igbo man, led the first provocative
and very painful attack and assassination
of top brass Hausa men.

3. An Igbo man disrupted our political
beginnings and introduced us to the
military rule aberration.

4. Another Igbo man, General Aguiyi Ironsi
clearly recognized the ethnic danger
provoked by the former.

5. The second Igbo man destroyed Nigeria’s
regional rule and initiated the Unitary
republic.

Evidently, the industrious Igbo
did not like Regionalism, this is
why they (Nzeogwu and Ironsi)
killed the Northern and Western
regional Premiers and
abrogated the three regions,
instituting a one-Nigeria to
enable free Igbo entrenchment
and trade outside the Eastern
region.

Deadly Mischief: A Loaf of Bread Draws
Second Blood

It was in May, during Aguiyi Ironsi’s reign
that the first of what is known today as
anti-Igbo riots occured.
According to the story, an Igbo bakery
made a loaf of bread, depicting Nzeogwu as
the Saint in the ‘Saint George and the
Dragon’ medieval crusader story, from the
7-11th century.

Advance our standards, set
upon our foes Our ancient world
of courage fair
St. George Inspire us with the
spleen of fiery dragons…..
Richard III. act v, sc.3. ”
“ Come not between the
Dragon and his wrath….. King
Lear. Act I, Sc 2 – William
Shakespeare

This depiction was highly provocative to a
welcoming Hausa-Fulani, still licking their
wounds and being hospitable, after an
unprovoked Igbo led military coup and
assassination of their finest.

This also while Nigeria was bleeding from
being thrown into its first military
government era. The military went on to
rule the nation for 13 straight years.

As I was saying, the loaf of bread had
Nzeogwu as Saint George, standing over
and killing Sardauna, who was depicted as
the bleeding dragon.

This triggered the first inter-ethnic crises
in the North. Igbos fled to the East, and
returned only later under guarantee of
their safety by president Ironsi. Some say
mischievous secessionist Igbos orchestrated
the pogroms to get their people home.

Later that year, in July, General Murtala
Muhammed, taking advantage of the
precedent, led a very bloody, 4-day coup
and overthrew the Ironsi Government.

At this stage, Igbos in the north were highly
targeted in outbreaks of ethnic violence.
Thousands were reportedly killed, though
the numbers can not be verified. And this
was the episode of the Igbo exodus to the
South.

I guess we can call this 3rd blood.

Biafra: Nigerian Civil War (1967–
1970)- The Truth

I am not going to get into so much history.
The history, we should all search for and
study.

All I will highlight are the misnomers:
The Biafra dream was not decimated by a
Hausa Muslim.

It was decimated by no other than General
Yakubu Gowon, a Christian Middle Belt
Nigeria, who hailed from Panshin, Plateau
state. Yakubu Gowon was the ‘compromise’
Christian Middle Belt leader put in place by
the North as a palliation after the bloody
years and coups prior.

He was chosen as an attempt in good faith
to foster peace between Nigeria’s ethnic and
religious groups.

It was Yakubu Gowon and his then military
general, again another southerner, and two
time president of Nigeria, southern General
and Christian, Olusegun Obasanjo that
destroyed the Biafra secessionist, treason
campaign.

Since then, no Igbo has held the reigns of
power.

This is of course not surprising, it is the
simple rule of victor over vanquished.
When the Arabs lost in their 6-day war-
attempt to sack European installed Israel in
Arab Palestine, Israel automatically
annexed Arab lands. The Golan heights of
Syria and the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt.
When Japan lost the second world war, it
gave up its right to have a military.

In like fashion, after the Igbo’s first
attempt and bloody coup to overturn the
equilibrium in multi-ethnic Nigeria’s civilian
rule, and after they lost in their second
attempt, the Biafra secession, bloody
campaign, it is not surprising that they have
not yet been put in a position of power,
because the rest of Nigeria for the right or
wrong reasons is afraid of them, maybe.

Time to drop the hatchet

There is no reason for continued hatred
and distrust. Many do not even know why
there exists the bad blood between these two
prominent groups, but obviously some
desperate forces are taking advantage of a
sour history to invoke religious and ethnic
hate and sectarian strife in Nigeria, with
ultimate goal- the disintegration of Nigeria.

Churches being targeted in the North are an
obvious dirty game, being orchestrated
purposefully to invoke sentiment and chaos.

Among those caught planning, arming and
involved in the bombings under the auspices
of Boo Haram, are Nigerians of all ethnic
groups, religions and regions.

In an article I read on

MuslimsAgainstTerror.com , written by Aliyu,
so many Christians and Southerners have
been caught in failed ‘Boko’ bombing
attempts. Some suspect that some extremist
Biafraites with foreign meddlers are
secretly behind Boko Haram, in a new
attempt and sinister technique to enable
secession.

The Igbo’s and the South is as suspect as the
North in this deadly game, and attempt to
provoke discord among ethnic groups. Little
surprise Boko enjoys unbelievable impunity
and success while lacking any clear or
logical manifesto.

No region stands to loose more form Boko
than the North. Recently listed as the best
part of Nigeria to conduct business (10
Easiest States to Do Business in Nigeria),
now tumbling down the corridors of deeper
suffering, poverty, insecurity and at risk of
being cut off from the coast.

As described in Reuters report on the last
Sunday bomb attacks and subsequent
Christian youth rampage in Kaduna, Boko
are being allowed to win in their obvious
goal- to foster sectarian strife and
disintegration in Nigeria. This is all so
senseless.

Are we going to let Boko win? Everybody,
chill!

Now let me give you some teasers:

Do you still believe Nigeria is roughly torn
North and South between Muslims and
Christians, as the colonial media keeps
promoting? You will be surprised to find
that some states up North may even have
more Christians than Muslims.

Do you know that most Yoruba states are
governed by Muslims?

Do you know that the leader of MEND, the
Southern rebellion group, is a Muslim,
named ‘Jihad’, Mujahid Dokubo Asari.

Do you still believe that Nigeria was ruled
most of its years since independence by the
Dan Fodio, Northern Muslim? Will you
experience shock if you read my previous
paper on ‘the illusion of Northern rule’, and
find out that Christians and the South and
Middle Belt have ruled Nigeria the most or
at least as much?

Did you know that the north occupies 80%
of Nigeria’s land mass?

American televangelist and pastor, Creflo
Augustus Dollar, threw the internet into a
frenzy when he claimed that Jesus Christ died
for ‘financial prosperity’.

The 53-year-old Bible preacher and
financial prosperity ambassador took to his
social media on Wednesday, October 7, to
display to his followers that Jesus also agrees
with his financial philosophy. He posted
“Jesus bled and died for us so that we can
lay claim to the promise of financial
prosperity. #ProsperityInChrist
#WealthyLiving #AbundantLife” and some of
the comments which followed were awry.

Some of the commenters mocked the
televangelist due to the fact that the update
does not in anyway agree with orthodox
Christian teaching. This is one is the most
obvious and blatant statements of Creflo’s
prosperity beliefs in recent times. The
televangelist had first got everyone talking
when he asked his church members to donate
$65m so he can buy a private jet to spread
the gospel. He is in the news again for saying
Jesus died so that everybody (including
himself) can enjoy “financial prosperity.”

The controversial posts were quickly deleted
from his Facebook and Twitter pages, but not
without it being already screen-grabbed as
seen above. The prosperity preacher is known
for his controversial interpretation of the
Bible. Examples from Dollar’s teaching include
the following, “The Bible says that wealth is
stored up for the righteous (Proverbs 13:22,
New American Standard). However, it will
remain stored up until you claim it.
Therefore, claim it now! You possess the
ability to seize and command wealth and
riches to come to you (Deuteronomy 8:18).
Exercise that power by speaking faith-filled
words daily and taking practical steps to
eradicate debt. Like God, you can speak
spiritual blessings into existence (Romans
4:17). Remember, doubt keeps silent, but
faith speaks!”

Sometimes, he implores people to sow into
ministries like his so as to get huge blessings.
“You can say, ‘Oh, God, I need money! The
rent is due. The baby needs shoes. And what
about my breakthrough?’ But if you haven’t
sown financial seed, how can you expect a
financial harvest?”

Dollar is known for his controversial teachings
regarding prosperity theology, or the gospel of
wealth. He has long been criticized for living
a lavish lifestyle; he owns two Rolls-Royces, a
private jet, and real estate such as a
million-dollar home in Atlanta, a $2.5
million home in Demarest, New Jersey, and a
$2.5 million home in Manhattan, which he
sold for $3.75 million in 2012. Dollar has
refused to disclose his salary.
