South African retail chain, Shoprite has entered Anambra State in South East, Nigeria as it moves to open for business in many parts of the state, beginning with Onitsha, the state’s commercial capital.

You are celebrating Shoprite now that they are promising to open in Anambra but you were crying about how foreign companies are taking away all the money in Nigeria because they opened in Ibadan and are prepping up for another outlet within 6 months. Is that not hypocrisy? It's bad when they open in Yorubaland but angelic when it is iboland??

Clerverly: Before this time, we were made to believe on Nairaland that Nigige was not popular, Ngige was not going to win his Local Govt, Ngige was going to bear the brunt of the alleged"deportation", Anambra were going to protest with their votes, Ngige was going to be stoned during rallies and so on.

Then fastforward to the present, Ngige support base has surged to the extent that, even his sworn enemies can attest to the fact, that if Anambra Gov Election was to be held today, it would be landslide for Ngige.

To support the above, check out the number of I D s that have sprung up on Nairaland since Last two weeks, all with the same brief-"lets run Ngige down". Then what happens to the other contestants??

But these are the reasons why all their efforts would fail:

1. Just came back from APC's Strategic Meeting yesterday held in Awka where I took out time to sample opinions about Ngige and Fashola "deportation". Out of about 30 people I asked about 28 said they didn't know what I meant by deportation, that it was Ngige or Nobody. Conclusion; Deportation only exists on the minds of paid e-posters.

2: Ojukwu's factor is no longer there.

3. Ngige perception by Anambra people as a liberator and Man of the People.

4 : crisis in PDP.
5 . Obi's handling of Soludo's disqaulification.
6. No other credible candidate remaining except Ngige and to some extent Obiano.
7. It is going to be a Two horse Race which will hugely favour Ngige.


Prediction- Ngige to hold sway.
Udo diri umu Anambra!!!

What is important is if your retardeenGEJ will not RIG the elections with Obi. If he does successfully, Ngige may not win though he is probably the only tried and tested candidate. I hope in your strategy meetings you are not only talking about manifesto, votes, etc but how to ensure the elections are not rigged by having hordes of supporters with video cameras taking pictures and videos. On one hand I want Ngige to win and hopefully help Anambra to progress and do better but on the other hand I want PDP, Obiano, Uba or any candidate that will loot the state into insolvency and retrogression so that Anambra does not derive any benefit from APC because of the way they have and keep insulting the efforts of their leaders who happen not to be Ibos. The way the abuse Fashola, Tinubu, Soyinka and Buhari, etc; I want them to really have another Orji as governor or even worse! Anyone that can bankrupt the state fastest should be the winner and any PDP candidate will be perfect for that!

See question! For starters, I don't hate Buhari, in fact I like him in some ways and open minded in to some of his other shortcomings - everyone has them! I will give you a straight forward answer on why some Nigerians and parts of Nigeria hate Buhari:

1. ibos hate Buhari because he is a northerner, Hausa, one of the Nigerian soldiers who led some of the battles during the Biafra war. In short, he helped to put down the ibo rebellion. This is why MOST ibos are mad and embittered with Buhari and you will notice it is not only Buhari that is so hated. The Northerners and Westerners (Hausas and Yorubas) are hated primarily for this reason so OBJ, Tinubu, IBB, Muritala, Fashola, even Soyinka recently - it doesn't matter. This is a problem that is beyond Buhari as a person for ibos refuse to see that Buhari was only doing his sworn duty for had he run away, they would be the first to call him a coward. It is funny that while they blame leaders in the north and west that had a national duty to do and did it, they have never blamed any ibo leader who led them into the war e.g. Ojukwu. In fact they like Ojukwu who was directly responsible for the slaughter of 3 M people to Phillip Effiong (a non ibo minority biafran) who came to common sense and pulled them out of the slaughter.

2. The other people who hate Buhari are the past corrupt leaders who fear that Buhari will put them in jail or surpass their meagre achievements.

3. The other group are non leaders but powerful rich Nigerians who collude to loot the treasury or engage in bunkering, illegal businesses, criminal practices that leaders like the retardeen GEJ cannot think to combat or have the effrontery to question, the common sense to arrest or stop but merely trivialize it in interviews snickering and laughing like a phool. Fake drug cartels in Onitsha will rather people like the retardeen remain president as they are guaranteed to be rich while killing others with fake drugs. Drug smugglers would rather that NDLEA keep doing a shoddy job or arresting people and writing a sensational treatise to give the impression that they are working while such arrested suspects are allowed to either go scot free and not lobbying the law makers to enact stiff penalties like the death sentence to be applied immediately on conviction.

4. The other people who hate Buhari are the ones who have been indoctrinated with lies. Most Nigerians born from in 1985 still have no clue as till today as they were born in the same year Buhari was overthrown. At least any one not born way before 1985 except politically astute and smart will go around listening to rumours and believing it and perpetuating the hate.

5. The others who may not like Buhari are foreign powers but their influence is small if Nigerians are ready to do what is good for them and their people. Kill corruption, stop BH, stop the leakages in the economy, bring back War Against Indiscipline like it was in those days, re-orientation of Nigerians, etc.

At the end of the day, Nigerians deserve the leaders they get. When they are suffering, being killed and slaughtered, not able to go to school for months because of ASUU and retardeenGEJ laughs about in on national television but come to defend him because he is from an oyel state, their state or giving ibos more political posts or contracts, it is their cup of tea. When I see such threads of lamentations and gory killings, I just skip it - I won't let any loser ruin my day!

Some people were born with base stupi.dity in their genes, e.g. the poster! It is not by force to be president if you can't perform or be insulted, you will take one of the two! If retadeenish idioticGEJ wants to be treated like an angel, he can pack up his useless head back to his outekwe village where the shepopotamus can sing him a lullaby everyday! Simple!

[quote author=Mayor_of_Lagos]Horus,

I watched the media. Thats a concept, not a project.

You can create any concept and submit it to govt as a business model. Then you get it into media to push for marketing and subscription. Audience will see what is possible and subscription to the idea will grow. Its a gamble that the popularity will force govt to adopt the idea and therefore secure it for capital financing, more likely through bond offering considering its scale to the local market.

Its a beautiful piece and so far exist as a concept judging from the article. This will be a way forward for SE if they pull it off and a magnet to rally resettlement for the land.

Check out the concept owner.

He is Deltan, does not seem to have even attended any rated university in Nigeria but LBS and a few courses in China and US, and he will organize the construction of 5,000 shop market in Abia? What is in Abia, are they richer than his home state of Delta or Orji has told him he will finance it? Question, questions, questions! An established brand could be believable but the pedigree of this man is unknown to me at least! But if anyone wanted to construct a real mega anything at a cost of a few billion (mostly bank money, I guess) which bank will give you money in Nigeria to go and build in Abia while neglecting Lagos, Abuja, PH, Ibadan, Ogun where the money really is? Their GDPs and IGRs are much higher than all the states in SE and above Abia. Does he want to spend 100 years to pay bank the loan?

It is time we ignore the noise making, empty chest-beaters and make them cry by doing what we do BEST! Onwards great Yoruba people of Western Nigeria! God Almighty is with thee...let the naysayers see thy progress! Let them see it but never partake of the good thereof! We pray for the peace of Jerusalem - OUR Jerusalem. May they prosper that love thee! May those who bring it down and speak ill of it never see any good come! May they live never to prosper! Let their falling and cutting off be great and speedy, let their judgement and destruction come quickly!

muktar mtt: Nope u r one who is fool of d forst oder wat d meaning of dat madness of d retarded prezdow ware is our money salary have not bein paid etc nd u go see one fool sayin GEJ 2015 while GEJ hold his monthly salary because of his stupid ambition mtsw,

Good comment! You know the governors now have a chance to extricate their states and resources from the FG! Let the states make it impossible and keep agitating for their taxes and natural resources to contribute a dime to the federal purse! Oh for FREEDOM! Let Nigeria fight for the freedom of its people but alas most of the governors are pusszies especially in the SE and ND and would rather remain bottom feeders than take the bull by the horn! Let the states that want to opt out do that at least, and whatever state contributes to the federal purse gets some allocation while states that opt out will generate their own revenue and keep all of it! I am sure the SW will NEED nothing from this useless, dead retardeen's government!

slimghost: Of course, am always the first to accept that the coup was flawed but terming it a power grab by igbos is unacceptable.

So if YOU ACCEPT that it was flawed but not as a power grab, so what is it? -1, 0 or 1, if you are mathematically inclined? It cannot be something and be that same thing as the same time. So tell us what exactly it is??

This news makes some people glad about their progress and will BREAK some HEARTS!

joel lala: [s]Philip Emeagwali (born in Akure, Nigeria, on August 23, 1954) is a Nigerian-born engineer and computer scientist/geologist who was one of the two winners of the 1989 Gordon Bell prize from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for his invention and use of a connection machine supercomputer to help analyse petroleum fields. He is the first Nigerian to have achieved that feat in computer technology. He is a native of Onitsha Ado in Onitsha, Anambra State.
Emeagwali used 65,000 processors to invent the world’s fastest computer which performs computations at 3.1 billion calculations per second. [/s]

When will you people educate yourselves and stop spreading the scam story of Emeagwali who has been proved to be a fraud? I don't care if he is your brother but stop this embarrassment!

I have to admit that I was deceived when the story about Philip Emeagwali appeared. I thought that he was a genuine black genius. After all, even on a continent where statistics and data show the average IQ is 70 and the standard deviation is 12, one black in 3.5 million will have an IQ higher than 130, one black in 368 million will have an IQ higher than 140, it was a great thing for Africa to have a 'genius' recognized.

Anyway, I'm ashamed to admit that I was suckered by the talk about Emeagwali inventing the supercomputer by watching the way bees build their hives. I didn't understand the reasoning entirely, but it was something about the hexagonal shape of the beehive cells that, when you used it in computer memory, made the throughput a lot faster. It turns out that was all just jive.

In 1989, Emeagwali was one of nine people to share a Gordon Bell Prize, worth about $1000. The Gordon Bell Prize is one of many small-time prizes that people who use computers can win, and it is the basis for a lot of hyperinflated self-promotional bogus claims that Emeagwali later made.

The controlled media, including CNN, picked up on Emeagwali's antics and gave them uncritical prestige. Suddenly, we were hearing that Emeagwali invented the idea of parallel processing. He did not. We heard that Emeagwali invented the supercomputer. He did not. We heard that he invented the Internet. He did not. We were invited to believe that Emeagwali's Gordon Bell Prize was some kind of major achievement, on a par with the Nobel Prize. It is no such thing. There are even pseudobiographical anecdotes about Emeagwali to be found online, many of them intended to convey the idea that Emeagwali is one of the most brilliant men ever to live, on a par with, say, Karl Friedrich Gauss. He is not.

It's all lies, mostly invented by Emeagwali and the controllers, and amplified by the Zionist media. I should have known better than to believe it. Well, I do know better now. Emeagwali has no Ph.D., having failed twice to convince the University of Michigan that he deserves one. He failed to convince a judge that he was the victim of racism in the matter of his being denied a Ph.D., so he wasn't even able to use the courts to force the University of Michigan into giving him a doctorate, which probably means he fell far, far short of deserving one.

(Bloggers comment - This shouldn't come as a surprise to the informed reader, Michael King AKA Martin Luthern King was a serial plagiarist, so bad in fact, his own biographers admit to it. This doesn't stop our public educational system from portraying him as a God to our children does it? Why would Emeagwali be any different?)

Emeagwali did succeed in flummoxing some Nigerian government officials whose heads were even bonier than his that he deserved to have his image engraved on an official Nigerian postage stamp.

While he was hyped with all this free Zionist publicity, he managed to get Bill Clinton to certify him as an official genius, which just goes to show you what a big liar Clinton is, in case you missed all those other lies he told us on television in the 1990s.

Going back to his one actual claim to fame, small as it is, Emeagwali would not even have gotten his fractional part of that Gordon Bell Prize if the judges had not succumbed to a desire to make a minority group feel "included." The contest was for economic efficiency in high speed computing, and the competitors, a team from Mobil Corporation, produced an entry that ran twice as fast as Emeagwali's, with significantly more cost efficiency. The judges didn't want Mobil to have all the prize recognition, though, so they cut Emeagwali in for a share out of sympathy.

Now, the very fact that Philip Emeagwali can even program a computer puts him ahead of nearly all of his brethren the planet. But that's small praise. Emeagwali isn't a man who can be satisfied with small praise, so he tried to raise a worldwide fraud in which he gave himself some very big praise. And, since it was convenient to their "shame the white majority" agenda, the Zionist media used Emeagwali to echo his "great Black genius" lies internationally through broadcast and print media.

Tell that to the marines abeg! After the retardeen leaves and he does nothing, the 160 Tr will be small to the damages you will experience. You cannot eat your cake and have it!

Samboribobob , yeebariba, sangba fo! Obi will dash Anambra to PDP like his property, what can any ibo do about it? Then the retardeen's lackey will ride rough-shod over Anambra like a collosus! I guess he will build Dubai and Japan of Africa in that State! LMAO

The retardeen president is playing a fast one on the ibos again but can they see the connection? Why should I tell you people when you won't believe it anyway?? Did someone say the retardeen is backing Soludo? I think that was onlytruth but he was aptly taken to the cleaners by Rhino on that day but I am waiting further updates...LWKMD!

Next time, buy those nice luggage bags that just roll on their own, you can out a small bag on the big one and it rolls it around for you! That is Naija for you!
