Yyeske:
Politics and democracy is all about interest and number and you need to fight for your interest because nobody is giving you nada for what you never worked for.
Hatred, emotions and sentiments never win in democracy all over the world.

How does sneaky Federal character and Quota system...Goal post changing in the middle of a game used all over the world? You design schemes to shortchange other people in the same country...Where is that used all over the world? The problem with Nigeria is not ONLY the government, but some of its people who are bigots and sectional, because it favours them...

Khaleell001:

When Jonathan was president of Nigeria the Yorubas did not occupy the top. six position in this country yet they never called for civil war.

I respect them for their skill, for their knowledge, for theit industrious nature but they are gradually turning themselves into what they shouldn't be.

Were they compensated as having a position in the service chief cadre or not? So they were no completely excluded...You clumsy people should try and fair in your sordid comparison...

Akpuoru:
Rubbish talk. O churu onwe ya na ugbo, asikwana na ugbo erughi ya. When you foolishly and voluntarily alienated yourself from the political equation of the nation you never thought of the consequences. You even had some altercations with Obiano when he warned you about your blind and dangerous sojourn with Atiku and your lacing Ohaneze, a sociocultural group to the apron of PDP. Now you are talking about war. You, your family and your fans will wage that war and not the Igbo nation. Just bury your head in shame.

You lack the depth to understand what is going on. When they were in the main stream in PDP since 1999, sinking deep in political equation, what did they get? Its you that need to bury your big head in shame as you are gravely uninformed.

Oshigun:
Igbos always threatening war childishly after falling victim to their own hateful, rash, irrational, hateful, myopic and impetuous actions. Nigeria is changing . Soon no one or zone/region will be entitled to anything automatically and it is those who build bridges, forge alliances and play the game pragmatically/diplomatically who will get what they want. As obtains in other democracies worldwide.

When some of us Yorubas and even your sensible brothers warned you about your wholesale hatred and rejection of the APC by Igbos you called us Fulani slave and called your pragmatic Igbo brothers "Efulefu". Why complain now? In the new Nigeria ,after Buhari and all the old boys are gone, it will even be worse for Igbos because it will strictly be "make your bed and lay in it" as the newer Generation of Politicians won't have the patience our fathers showed for Igbos brattish and hateful behaviour. Only Igbos don't understand that hate begets hate.

Can you define Federal Character and Quota system terms. Yorubas were never left out like the Igbos when they were in opposition. At least they must be one of the service chiefs...

By the way why are you crying and begging in thei video as you have been pragmatic and diplomatic...

What diplomacy did you gain from watching this link..?

You are already crying and begging the UN... Mr Oduafraud!

Watch this video and tell what you see...You never see anything.

zoedew:
Quite amazing! All the way like forever!! Nnamdi Azikiwe, Aguiyi Ironsi, Emeka Ojukwu and now Nnamdi Kanu!!! Same mode of operation they had is to 1. whip up secessionist sentiments. 2. Have the ordinary hapless Igbo out on the streets putting their lives on the line for the idea. 3. When the time for action comes up they flee to safe havens! Azikiwe fled, Ojukwu fled, and now Kanu!

So because of these..they should be docile while you SW and the north continue to share Nigeria's commonwealth between yourselves for 50 years now? Name any major federal assets in the former eastern region...The group are following due process as sanctioned by the UN and EU. There is no call for arms, so why are you not comfortable?

Buhari, only justice can make Nigeria great — Maitama Sule

“Sincerely speaking, the South-East has not had a fair-share since the civil war. Their marginalization is quite obvious. But if the policy of reconstruction, reintegration and reconciliation of Gen.Gowon and the late Gen. Murtala’s administrations had continued, the agitation by the few Igbo for Biafra state would have been a thing of the past. Balarebe Musa

myddmodnabastard:
you people are just too daft to see that cownu is a scammer

Can he scam more than some of your pastors in your region? How can he scam anyone when all he has predicted are happening? The SE has gained nothing since after the war and these have nothing to with political party. Igbo person can never be appointed in some positions for 50 years now. All the federal assets are in the north and the SW...So what do you mean that the people are too daft? You are more than daft no to have seen these things.

romenna:
Empty barrels.
Conglomeration of idiotic drug dealers, thieves and fraudsters

Why you are so pained that "idiotic drug dealers, thieves and fraudsters" will leave you and form their own country, so you can be without these crimes is very difficult to explain... You should have been the happiest...but you are pained. You should check your sanity

naijaproper:
Speechless

Most people from the north and SW are not concerned by these...So long as they are sharing the spoils of Nigeria...everything is fine...
They will tell you that the bandits and the Yorubas and the Hausas have been living together for centuries...That this is a fake news.

Lazy and tribal Nigerians are busy celebrating June 12 and sharing of loot at the National assembly why people are killed daily. No urgency, few people questioning government who are not doing enough are mocked by by these citizens...who are bigots, weak and divided by religion and ethnicity.

The Niger State Emergency Management Agency (NSEMA) yesterday put at 47, the casualty figure of the Sunday’s attacks by bandits on Kwaki, Ajatayi, Gwassa, Barden Dawaki, Gyammamiya and Alewa communities in Shiroro Local Government Areas of the state. Twelve people had earlier been reportedly killed in the incident, but NSEMA Head of Relief and Rehabilitation Malam Salihu Garba told Daily Trust that as of yesterday, 47 corpses had so far been recovered.

Garba said: “As we speak, 47 bodies were recovered and buried. Out of the number, 19 were from Kwaki, including that of Sarkin Pawa who was shot and later died”. He said Kwaki might have recorded the highest number of casualties because it was the first community attacked. ADVERTISEMENT He said out of the 2,000 people displaced, 500 were sheltered in a temporary camp put up by the agency at Erena; while others were at Galadima-Kogo, Zubba, Kodobi and other communities. He also said those injured were receiving treatment at hospitals at Erena and Kuta; while those with severe cases had been referred to secondary and tertiary facilities outside the area.

GoldChest:
This cowards descendants of Oduduwa and Awolowo , never ceases to amuse me

I didn't know other groups know about UN EU and ECOWAS...the other day one of their clowns asked IPOB to also petition FIFA... He didn't know that what goes around comes around

If you think ONLY ipob know how to petition the EU, UN and ECOWAS, then you have another think coming...

The glue binding one Nigeria together is just OIL...

Yoruba socio-cultural group, Yoruba Koya Movement, has declared tomorrow as a national day of protest against the ongoing killings and kidnapping across Yoruba-speaking states, including Kogi and Kwara.

The “June 12 Otoge rally” is backed by a Yoruba intelligentsia group, Voice of Reason (VOR), and 26 other socio-cultural and self-determination groups.

It will hold in all state capitals of Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti, Lagos, Osun, Ogun, Kogi and Kwara states simultaneously.

In a statement yesterday, the group’s National Director of Publicity, Mr. Maxwell Adeleke, said the rally is aimed at presenting the “Yoruba Charter of Demands to the government of Federal Republic of Nigeria (FRN) and to also present a Public Petition to the United Nations (UN), European Union (EU), African Union (AU) and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) over the ongoing killings in Southern and Middle Belt Nations of Nigeria”.

The statement added that the rally is being organised to “reawaken the people of Yoruba-speaking states to be conscious of the agenda of some ethnic warlords and reactionaries outside their domain to capture their land and enslave them while masquerading as visitors and to enjoin all governors in Yoruba speaking states to integrate towards economic, social and political development of Yorubaland and to encourage them to make the security of lives and properties of their people utmost priority”.

“The rally is meant to encourage Yoruba legislators both at the state and national assemblies to endorse, support and move motions that will expressly indicate where the Yoruba stands,” the statement said.

The rally, billed to begin at 9am, will hold simultaneously at Gani Fawehinmi Park, Lagos; Ibadan Military Cenotaph, Opposite Government House, Agodi, Ibadan, Oyo State and Pansheke Roundabout, Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Other locations are, Fajuyi Roundabout, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State; Nelson Mandela Freedom Park, Osogbo, Osun State; Alagbaka Roundabout, opposite First Bank, Akure, Ondo State; Kabba Township Stadium, Kabba, Kogi State and Ibrahim Taiwo Road, Ilorin, Kwara State.

Team of PDP destroyer.
Nightmare of land and online pigs
sai baba the corruption killer

If only the illiterate in you can make you see reason why this team is a huge failure, Nigeria might still have chance to be pulled back from the brink.

Take time to read this article by Muyiwa Adetiba... and see if you would make the same comment you made earlier.

By Muyiwa Adetiba

On Monday, I had a conversation with a lady who calls me daddy and whom I am proud to regard as a daughter. She is a manager in a bank. Her husband is a medical doctor. They are both in their 40s. Ordinarily, the likes of these two, should be the backbone of any society. They should be the archetypal middle class with a home in the better part of town and kids in posh schools. They should qualify to be members of the top social and sporting clubs in their area. That was what it was in my time. That is what still obtains in many other countries. But the reality of their time is that they are struggling financially and socially to earn the status that their professional training and position should have entitled them to. They feel, quite rightly, that they can have a better life elsewhere.

It is an option they are being pushed to explore. An acquaintance of mine is in his late 60s. He is a medical doctor. He had been the head of two hospitals in the last two decades. His children are all educated and married. He is at that age when he should be thinking of retirement and enjoying the fruits of his years of labour. His grandchildren should be around him tucking at his grey beard and preparing him for his second childhood. His expertise, backed by years of experience, should be sought after. He should not be ‘on call’ any more. Yet last year, he resigned so he could have time to study for the professional examination of the country he is emigrating to—you wonder how reading up would be easy for him at close to 70. I have talked to the three of them and the reasons they gave range from professional satisfaction, to better education for their children, to good Medicare and to a better quality of life generally.

My argument that what constitutes ‘a better quality of life’ is subjective and should include ties to family, friends and homestead including socio/cultural ties fell on deaf ears. I had also said that the jobs they could get in their new homes, might not reflect their ages and years of experience. But they have chosen to look at only one side of the coin, the bright side. Alas, people sometimes believe, even when they should know better, that the grass is always greener on the other side of the river. Poverty: Expert renews call for family planning(Opens in a new browser tab) Last Sunday, I had a late breakfast with some ‘aburos’ who are mainly in their late 40s. All of them are products of foreign education in diverse disciplines. They all chose to come back after their university education and are doing reasonably well. We all agreed during a lively discussion, that the quality of life in Nigeria is heading downwards in almost all areas. The majority at the table, believed that the wise thing is to leave the country now when it is still possible while a few believed Nigeria can still be salvaged. No one at the table is willing to see Nigeria in each one of us and that we are complicit to what the country has become in one form or the other. All of us, especially those still in their 40s and below, should therefore be part of the solution.

So if people with jobs, good jobs at that, and properties—are willing to drop all to start afresh in a foreign land even in the autumn of life, then consider the young unemployed; the hordes of graduates who are minted every year by our universities with little hope of being gainfully employed. Consider their desperation; their willingness to try anything while in their spring of life in order to escape an uncertain future. Also consider the uneducated and unskilled, the number of which is increasing everyday, who seemed destined for a life of crime unless they can somehow, change their destiny. Now, if people from such a diverse spread in age, education and income feel such a compelling need to emigrate, then you can imagine the message that is being sent to the visa officials across countries. The old profiling template has become useless. Now, you can have a good job and still want to emigrate; you can have properties and still want to emigrate; you can be married with children and still want to emigrate; you can be advanced in years and still want to emigrate. The result is a desperate and general tightening of visa noose.

The new conditions can be tedious and even humiliating to genuine travellers. A couple of weeks ago, the US announced that it was suspending the ‘drop box’ system. This is a system that facilitates the renewal of visas for regular travellers. The news of the suspension went viral among the elites because of its implication and the likelihood that it might be replaced with cumbersome new conditions. Nigerians should also brace up for stringent conditions from other countries. They will come unless we change the course of governance. I wrote about this barely six months ago after my experience in trying to get group visas to Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and China late last year. Some of the conditions were humiliating and designed to frustrate. Especially when one saw how seamless it was for those among us who had British and American passports! Because of my job and the generosity of a liberal boss, I started travelling more than forty years ago. I am thus in a position to observe how visa requirements have changed over the years for Nigerians. The change is almost in tandem with deteriorating governance in the country.

The last five years have been stringent. We should know why! I have been to all the continents in the world and if I don’t get to travel again, so be it. There is a limit at my age, to the humiliation I am willing to accept for any country’s visa. But what about the young ones who are being denied the experiences and opportunities some of us have had? Who are being made inferior because of the colour of their passports? The solution is simple yet complex. These countries will relax the noose when they realise that an average Nigerian wants to come back home. Otherwise, it will get tighter and tighter until the leaders themselves begin to feel the noose. And an average Nigerian would want to come back if we made Nigeria home to them in every sense. Very few people in the final analysis, really wish to sever their roots. Let our leaders look in the mirror. Let our elites look in the mirror. Let the rank and file look in the mirror. Enough of tokenism. Enough of buck passing.

What is the difference between what the Ohaneze now want and what Nnamdi Kanu has been saying all along?

Good morning Ohaneze

BuhariAdvocate:
Stop lying this group not ordered any killing they are loving people they promote unity and peace.

They promote unity and peace from Zamfara to Benue and from Sokoto to Kaduna?

To you blood guzzler...devil, these pictures depict peace and unity...

BuhariAdvocate:
Liar. miyetti Allah group is just like Ndigbo and Afenifere group.

So because they are like these groups they should be allowed to get away with 20,000, murder? Can you evil creature mention anywhere Ndigbo and Afenifere have ordered or claim to kill people because they refused to surrender their ancestral land? CAn you also show the pictures of these groups with arms, like I have showed Miyetti allah members with arm.

zibya:
And when the army rolls in the tanks don't cry and wail like your porn star Lord and savior Nnamdi Kanu

When will these your army roll in the tanks to destroy the Miyetti allah killers who are causing havoc in all states in Nigeria? What do you think the army would have done if Ipob was killing people in their farms all over Nigeria? Or are the fulanis the only ones allowed to kill..as they have no porn stars?

BuhariAdvocate:
Empty threat Anyway .Any organization group or individual person cause problem during this administration shall be tag as a terrorist and put to jail .

Just like the Miyetti Allah group who have killed more than 20,000 Nigerians and caused major problem in this administration have been tagged as such and put to jail. Nigeria has continued to descend to hell because clumsy un-serious creatures like you are in the majority

TruthinAction:
The army will stop them and get them arrested...Then the Ohenaeze will be arrested also and put in cell. This is the game plan.

Like the army stopped and arrested your BokoH brothers...then arrested and put your emirs sponsoring them in cell, abi?

Nigeria is heading to disintegration because cheating hypocrites like you are in majority..

KingOfallOsu:
South East should declare state of emergency on Kidnappers in your region


South East is full of kidnappers den, they need to declare state of emergency

SW leads in all crimes as at today...see

The Inspector General of Police ( I-G ), Mr Mohammed Adamu, said the police have arrested 2,175 suspects for armed robbery, kidnapping, cultism and banditry since the launch of the “Operation Puff Adder”
Adamu said that between April 5 when the operation was launched, 63 kidnap victims were rescued unhurt by the police operatives.

Igbobyblood:
how is that developed?

Let's compare Onitsha with Lagos Na

Comparing Lagos which was the former capital and Onitsha, says much of your intelligence and IQ.

Its like comparing Abuja and Ogbomosho!

Igbobyblood:
Igboland is cursed, can never be developed

Some of you people just talk without thinking. How can you say Igbo land is cursed...Just look at these two pics and say which is developed ans which is cursed.

1. Onitsha - Igboland

2. Abeokuta - Yorubaland

wirinet:
So this is the reason a simply happy holidays message is causing so much anger?

In all these thrash you have posted as well informed person, you skip trying to explain why you cut off heads and Igbos don't and you wished them to be like you..cutting of heads all over the place. Assuming all religions like the atheist, Hindusit, Buddaist are cutting off heads from China to Korea..and Africa just like you do...how beautiful would the earth be? You accused the man who is angry but praise the one who cut of heads..What manner of extremist are you? Where you angered by Miss World peagent in Abuja the federal capital that you destroyed Igbo properties in far away Kano or not?

Again, the Igbos are republican and free thinkers...they have no issues with people...and you have no powers to dictate to them on what they should be angry or happy about...as they didn't dictate to you on how not to cut off heads...

wirinet:
If they will be allowed to worship in peace, why are you then so angry at an innocent happy eid message.

If you are not angered by the Alla hu akhbar message that blare from mosques in igboland everyday and night, why are you guys so angry over a simple happy holidays message. Are you insinuating that today is not a public holiday in igboland?

Not if they are allowed to worship...they are indeed allowed or have you seen any time they are not allowed to worship? You are not only angered you cut offf heads....

As per the Alla hu akhbar message....why won't they be angered with that..What message do your brothers who cut of heads and blow themselves up shout?

wirinet:
And what will you do to igbo Muslims (even if they are 100) and non igbo Muslims living on your land? Forcefully convert them, discriminate against them or execute them?

Nope, they will be allowed to worship whatever they want...Have they ever been attacked?...but what did you do to the Yoruba female preacher in the federal capital Abuja? You cut off her head...and you want people to follow you like bees to honey?

wirinet:
And if Islam abhors igbos in return, you will be the first to wail and cry.

Seriously, you guys need therapy or deliverance from anger and hatred.

Nobody abhors any thing...Why would you wish Igbos have Islam when it appears they have their preferences? People say by their fruit you will know them? Why do you wish Igbos embrace it? How has it helped you than what Igbos prefer? Most people have no issues with Judaism. Hindism, Buddahism, atheism and you know it. I have never seen Igbo stopping people to worship whatever they want.

You need more therapy from anger and hate that the Igbos? How many times have Igbos slaughtered your people because of your religion of choice? Was it the Igbos that burnt your worship centers, or cut of the head of a preachers in Abuja and Kano? You need huge deliverance from anger and hate than the Igbos, mister. Can you list anytime the Igbos have killed anyone because of their religion of choice?

Mynd44:
They keep forgetting that Nigeria joined the OIC Decades ago but no Nigerian leader ever attended a meeting until uncle Jona.

So because Jona attended it then it is right? Why didn't Buhari the integrity man who came to restore and repair all the bad things Jona did...doing the same thing? Most Nigeria's are deadly hypocrites as they are guided by their religion than their country. Shame!

victorvezx:
Lol, typical Igbo victim mentality. U re acting like the South East is the only neglected region. The most marginalized region in Nigeria is the the South-South, and they are not making noise like u people even when there region produces all of Nigeria’s wealth.

You are deeply uninformed...try another propaganda to support your fear of Nigeria without the Igbos...despite your support and denial of wicked and brutal suppression ... See the below.


"...The South East has the highest infrastructural deficit in the country..." Tony Momoh APC chieftan.

" ....Igbo people calling for separation from Nigeria are doing so because they have not had their fair share in the scheme of things in Nigeria.
Musa admitted that since the civil war ended, Igbo people have not been treated as co-owners of the country.
His words: “Sincerely speaking, the South-East has not had a fair-share since the civil war. Their marginalization is quite obvious..." A second republic governor of Kaduna State, Alhaji Balarabe Musa

victorvezx:
It’s not about fear. It’s about preserving territory. It’s the same reason why China refuse to allow Hong Kong, Taiwan, And Tibet to go even when all can stand alone on their own as a country. China even threaten an invasion against them if they dare secede

Which decaying territory are you all about? ONLY a stark fool will suppress one of its territory and uphold the others...even when the suppressed one has the power to left it...Even so Hong Kong and Taiwan have some form of autonomy...

If this rubbish suppression is not stopped a time will come you won't have anybody from the territory representing Nigeria in any form of sporting activities...Will you send Python dance to force them?

victorvezx:
And it won’t happen. So all y’all picture propaganda will thrown in the dustbin after today

You be parasitico? You no fit live without the Igbos you have been marginalizing since after the war? Mention one federal investment there if you can? You believe that cheating a set of people will make you more prosperous?
