PoliticsRe: Yoruba Group Rejects Bill Granting Indigene Rights Through Residency, Marriage by Slytiger: 9:58pm On Mar 30, 2025
aviara:
The bill is good and should give people who have resided in a state for 10 years the right to contest any political positions in the state. After all, such a resident have been paying taxes to the state and contributing to the development of the state.
The current constitution allows them to contest. But aboriginals know themselves; hence, politics is local.

If you come to my LGA in Ifako ijaiye, Lagos, we can even trace our origin to either Yewa or Egba. A Lagos Islander can contest in Ifako Ijaiye, but we won't vote for him and that's our choice.

This is the same mistake Aguiyi Ironsi made thinking the unitary system would favor the Igbos, your law makers wants to repeat history.

Are you ready to grant indigene rights to Fulani herdman in Igbo Land?
Exactly.

Same people will live in Europe and Americas and seek naturalization. We’re the dark continent for a reason.

Sometimes I wonder what this our foolishness really helped us to achieve
being:
Exactly people would go to america and want to become a citizen by residency or marriage
Citizenship is different from indigeneity.
If you like, live in America or Europe for 200 years, you can never become an indigene.

Two Canadian prime minister below. They are citizens by settlement but are not indigenous to Canada.

Really?

Then we have to decide if we wanna have democracy or ethnocracy, I am totally in support of Ethnocracy based on Meritocracy, since democracy has been a very nepotistic experiment that has no hope of being useful in a multi-ethnic setting.

I think Democracy is for immigrant populated states like America and Canada.
The way minority aboriginal Americans and Canadians were slaughtered and almost wiped off by majority white settlers from Europe is a good example why this bill is foolish. It will consume lands of the minorities.

Anatolia:
If this bill, does not fly through, we deserve to go out separate ways. We should stop deceiving ourselves that we are one Nigeria. If people from other parts of Nigeria can benefit from the wealth of the South South, I don’t see why citizenship should not fly.
No South south person or any minority tribe from the middle belt or even the north, would support this bill. Only the Fulanis and of course some naive Igbos would love this bill.

SE politicians do not think at all. That was how they started the unitary system via Ironsi thinking it would favour them, till the Northerners hijacked it, fine-tuned it, and used it as a weapon.

Same is going to happen with this as well. Fulanis would love this bill very much, and as expected, they have the SE (Igbos) to do the dirty leg work.

Any igboman fooooolish enough to die for a Yoruba course will never be remembered, let the country continue to run the way anyone wants it to run. Who go die go die, who go remain go still remain, no how wey e wan be wey e never be before. You can never satisfy any insatiable individuals or tribe, from Awolowo to Abiola to Tilumbu... We all know what the narratives has always been.
- Fajuyi
- Banjo
Both died defending Igbos.
Its more like alot of Yorubas have learnt their lessons.

As per Prof Nwosu. He is a coward that refused to declare the winner of the election, even after Obasanjo and Yaradua were sworn in. He only admitted in a 2014 interview with Omoyele Sowore.

In that same June 12 riot, lots of brave people faced soldiers to demand their rights after they learnt via leaks that Abiola won.

The heros that deserved recognitions are those that stood firm, and sone even went to jail and some lost their lives. Those are the heros that deserves recognitions and not prof nwosu that went back home to Enugu to retire and enjoy himself.

People like Pa Alred Rewane, Prof. Omo Omoruyi, Soji Omotunde for decrying dictatorship, Mrs Iluyomade, Arthur Nwankwo (for harbouring anti-Abacha pamphlets) e.t.c should be the ones being honored.
TravelCCECC Launches Cargo Freight Service On Lagos-Ibadan Railway by Slytiger(op): 4:47am On Mar 29, 2025
The China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) has officially launched its cargo freight service on the Lagos-Ibadan Railway, heralding a significant advancement in Nigeria’s logistics and transportation sector.

The announcement was made on Friday through the official X account (formerly Twitter) of John Zhao, CCECC’s representative in Nigeria.

The inaugural journey, leveraging a cross-border rail transport model, commenced at the Ajuba Bonded Terminal, where cargo was transported to Apapa Port in Lagos.

Upon arrival, the goods were unloaded, and import containers were efficiently loaded for the return trip to the Ajuba Terminal, establishing a seamless and fully integrated logistics cycle for both import and export operations.

“CCECC recently launched its self-operated railway freight service in Nigeria with the inaugural run of a cargo train on the Lagos-Ibadan Railway, marking the official commencement of commercial freight operations.

“Utilizing a cross-border rail transport model, the train departed from the Ajuba Bonded Terminal and transported cargo to Apapa Port in Lagos. After unloading, it loaded import containers for the return journey and arrived at the Ajuba Terminal, establishing a seamless full-cycle bidirectional logistics chain for both import and export goods,” Zhao’s post read.

The launch of CCECC’s cargo freight service on the Lagos-Ibadan Railway follows the Nigerian Railway Corporation’s (NRC) recent approval of a 3-year operational license granted to CCECC.

What you should know
The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has granted a three-year license to the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) to operate freight services on the Lagos-Ibadan standard-gauge railway line. Effective from October 14, 2024, to October 13, 2027, this authorization enables CCECC to provide public goods carriage along the critical rail corridor.

This license represents a major milestone for Nigeria’s rail sector as CCECC becomes the first company to receive authorization for standard-gauge rail freight services in the country.

- Constructed by CCECC and officially launched in June 2021, the Lagos- Ibadan Railway spans 157 kilometers with an additional 7-kilometer branch line. Built to modern railway standards, the line supports speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour, seamlessly connecting Lagos, Nigeria’s economic hub, to Ibadan, a key industrial city in the southwest.

- By March 5, 2024, the Lagos-Ibadan Railway had operated safely for 1,000 days, transporting over 2 million passengers, according to CCECC’s website. The company has also provided extensive operational support, including technical assistance and workforce training programs.

Additionally, in February 2025, the NRC and APM Terminals Apapa relaunched the Apapa-Ibadan standard-gauge freight rail service. This service operates on a fixed schedule with departures every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, further boosting freight logistics along the rail corridor.

Suicide does not care about tribes and even sometimes doesn't care about whatever government is in power. Don't people commit suicide in advanced economies?

Tinubu was not the president in 2020, yet an igbo man from Imo state committed suicide due to economic hardship. Picture of the Igbo man handling from a tree in the link below.
