EponOjuku:
Shut up.

You Igbos claimed GEJ had completed this particular road and as such deserved reelection.

You sowed the seed of deceit and must now eat the fruit of disappointment.

This is what you get when contraceptives fail.

AutoReportNG:

For those who do not know, this is the most important Federal road in the SE.

Just in case you want to know why IPOB is gaining traction.

Yyeske:
Anambra central and north are apga and they voted Obiano in and voting him in again, Anambra south can keep their votes for PDP as they did before

The 2013 election was a referendum on Obi's performance. People voted for Obi not Obiano. Nobody knew who Obiano was.

After he was installed by Obi, he decided to follow the advice of that evil man in long red cap.

Yyeske:
Nnewi and Anambra south senatorial district generally didn't vote for him but those of us from Anambra north and central will still vote him back. We did put him there before and we shall repeat it.

Obi will deliver Anambra central neat and tidy to Obaze.

MXrap:
Sunnybobo how? How many voter's card do you have? One? Mtchew

I don't have any but I have control over a lot of people who do.

Obiano is a goner.

FKO81:
Gov Obiano Wipes the Tears of ANPC
Pensioners...
Anambra Newspapers and Printing Corporation,
ANPC, pensioners were today paid their
gratuities, the very first time in 25 years.
... Payments will continue on Tuesday!
This is just one of Gov Obiano's many
demonstrations of humaneness in governance...
Governance with human face!
The struggle to get these pensioners paid has
been on for over 1/4 century.

Obiano is a goner.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has returned houses seized during the administration of former president, Goodluck Jonathan in 2013 to Timipre Sylva, the former governor of Bayelsa State.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, seized 48 choice property belonging to former Bayelsa State Governor, Mr. Timipre Sylva, in January 2013 because he was being prosecuted at a Federal High Court in Abuja for alleged misappropriation of N6.46 billion state funds when he was governor of the state.

Some of the assets belonging to the former governor include a mansion at 3 River Niger Street, plot 3192 Cadastral zone AO, Maitama District Abuja; nine units (comprising six one bedroom and 3 two bedroom apartments) at 8 Sefadu Street Wuse zone 2, plot 262 Cadastral zone AO2, Wuse Abuja; and 2 units duplexes at 5 Oguta Street, plot 906 Cadastral zone Wuse 11 Abuja.

Others are: a duplex at Plot 1271 Nike Street Cadastral zone AO5, Maitama District Abuja; a duplex at Phase 1 Unit No. 1 (Villa 1) Palm Springs Gold Estate, Cachez Turkey Projects Limited, Mpape, Abuja; 10 units of one-room apartments at 8 Mistrata Street plot 232 Cadastral zone Wuse 11 Abuja; 5 units duplexes at Plot No 1070 Dakibiyu District Cadastral zone B10, Abuja; 16 units service apartments at Plot 1181 Thaba Tseka Crescent, Off IBB Way, Wuse 11, Abuja and 3 units of three- bedroom flats at No. 1 Mubi Close, Plot 766.

Say NO to tribalism.

While many students have just graduated from high school, 18-year-old Nigeria native NkechinyereChidi-Ogbolu is not your typical teen.

Chidi-Ogbolu just graduated summa cum laude from Howard University with a degree in chemical engineering — making her the youngest person to graduate from Howard this year, and one of the youngest in Howard’s history.

But that’s not all for Chidi-Ogbolu.

She’s now preparing to start a Ph.D. program at the University of California-Davis after the summer ends. She’ll be studying biomedical engineering with a focus on creating and discovering new medicines.

“I’ve always been interested in the medical field,” she told USA TODAY College. “But I want to have a broader scale of impact than in treating patients one-on-one.”

Chidi-Ogbolu said she’s always been the youngest person in her classes. While most students from Nigeria graduate high school at the age of 16, Chidi-Ogbolu finished high school particularly early, at 14, since she skipped 5th grade and attended an accelerated high school.

After high school, she left Nigeria for America and enrolled full-time at Howard University, a historically black university and her first-choice school.

“I thought I would be more comfortable at the age going to a school with more people that looked like me and therefore I could more easily relate to,” said Chidi-Ogbolu. “Plus, they gave me a full scholarship, so that definitely helped.”

Leaving her parents in Nigeria was difficult, but Chidi-Ogbolu wasn’t alone. Many of her extended family members live in America, including an aunt who lived not far from her dorm, and other family members in Texas and Alabama.

She credited her family’s support for her ability to cope with her new surroundings.

“I spoke to my mom almost every day on the phone — for over an hour almost every time. My dad and I talked really often too,” Chidi-Ogbolu says, adding that she spent most holidays with her aunts in America. “Talking to them definitely helped sometimes when things were overwhelming.”

“My support system was a very big part of why I was able to stay very grounded during the whole journey,” she says.

Her friends at Howard were very supportive of her too. Many of her them didn’t initially know how young she was, which gave rise to many moments of surprise.

“People usually reacted with shock,” she says. “Then they became really protective.”

With the blessings of her parents, Chidi-Ogbolu spent the summer after her junior year researching African weather patterns with Professor Paul Ullrich at UC-Davis. “While I was there, I decided that grad school was what I wanted to do.”

She started working on her graduate school applications during her senior year. “I can’t say it was stress-free,” she jokes. Her hard work paid off on February 7, when she received her acceptance letter from UC-Davis.

“It was definitely a wonderful moment,” she says.

Prasant Mohapatra, UC Davis vice provost of graduate education, and dean of graduate studies, had this to say about Chidi-Ogbolu: “We are delighted to welcome Nkechinyere into the graduate education community at UC Davis. We hope to provide a dynamic educational experience that will deepen and expand her passion for advancing the field of biomedical engineering, and we are truly impressed by her future plans to help people worldwide through scientific research and innovation.”

What’s next for her? This summer, she’s taking an advanced biology class at a local community college to prepare for her doctoral program. She’s also working on a book, provisionally titled Tales of an Uber Minor in College.

While she says she’s super busy, she does set aside free time to relax. “I love watching movies and series, especially Korean ones, and I like to sing and do karaoke,” she says.

Chidi-Ogbolu also has some advice for teens her age.

“Don’t limit yourself because you think you can’t do it or because no one you know had done it,” she advises. “You can always be the exception to the rule and end up being exceptional.”

Our brothers from across the Niger should come and learn how to play politics without bitterness.

williams2kg:
This is serious.

We are firing from all cylinders. The cows think this is 2017 they do not know that the battle we fight with then today is "agha ako na uche".

IGBO leaders under the aegis of Alaigbo Development Foundation Monday dragged Arewa youths, their sponsors including officials of governments in the Northern Sharia States to the International Criminal Court, ICC, at Hague and the Nigerian Courts to answer to the notice of quit issued Igbo residing in the Northern parts of the country.

According to the Igbo group, the legal action was aimed at piling judicial pressure to restrain Arewa youths, their sponsors and supporters including officials of the Northern governments from executing their threat of Quit Notice and take-over of properties owned by Ndigbo in the Arewa territories planned for 1st October.

In a statement issued in Abakaliki and signed by its President, Prof. Uzodinma Nwala, Secretary Prof. Nath Aniekwu and Chairman, Media and Publicity Bureau, Chief Abia Onyike, the Igbo leaders warned that any attack on any Igboman linked to the threat by AREWA groups will be interpreted by Ndigbo as an announcement for the final dissolution of the federation.

The statement read in part: “ADF is assuring all that never again will any Igbo or Biafran property be declared abandoned or confiscated by an authority or group of persons in any part of the country. ADF and Ndigbo will fight that in accordance with international laws and conventions.

“ADF insists that the only thing that will convince Ndigbo and Biafrans that the federal government is genuinely interested in protecting our lives and property in the North is the immediate enactment of a law by the National Assembly prohibiting confiscation or declaration as abandoned, properties of Ndigbo or any Nigerian for that matter in any part of the federation before 1st October 2017.

“ADF stands for a peacefully re-negotiated federation based on the principles of self-determination, truth, justice, equity and equality or a peaceful dissolution of Nigeria if the above is not feasible. This is a matter of extreme urgency. “ADF resolves to take urgent legal action at the international criminal court at the Hague and the Nigeria courts to pile judicial pressure to restrain the Arewa youths, their sponsors and supporters including officials of governments in the Northern Sharia states from executing their threat of Quit Notice and take over of properties owned by Ndigbo in the Arewa territories planned for 1st October, 2017.”

better be quite than make mockery of ur self.

This is what you get when contraceptives fail.

Kingsolex1:
all you can do is create awareness...
but using iPod and calling the Yoruba race on the same line in terms of example or illustration is like berating ur ancestors and dragging them through the mud..
an average ipob believe any thing u tell him in line with wat he wants to hear like zombies...
the more awareness u create, the sooner u hear people speaking up and fighting for this cause you wish to been the lime light on...
be a proud ambassador of you race...


good luck.

You sound like you were "born yesterday". We haven't forgotten the OPC of 1993 to 1999.

maclatunji:
You have had your fun and games but it is time to learn to be reasonable.

It will take a minor miracle for the federal government not to have you sent back to jail after the courts end their vacation and none of us here is ready to stake his political future for your sake.

If you think the people cheering for you at rallies can protect you from the state, you are on your own. Your father is here, he saw Biafra and the suffering. This is going to be our last major warning to you, if you do not learn to apply wisdom with your agitation, you are on your own.

You wish.

Yyeske:
You no reach, dare me

I dare you.

Yyeske:
Who be this abeg

Your nightmare

fulanmafia:
You got an issue with comprehension?

In '67, we just had the British and Biafra had the Belgians as allies...

Fast forward to '67 and Nigeria now has the US (already selling us weapons and planes) who have over the years become unshakeably allied to British interests a.k.a one Nigeria...not to mention neighbouring African countries.

I'm sure I won't need to spoon-feed more logic to you on this matter.

Keep deluding yourself. You think Obama is still in the white house?

Selling of weapons is just business Bro.

GavelSlam:
But not happening with Lycamobile.

It is happening with all of them but not all the time as sometimes the caller's number appears.

fulanmafia:
Yup you're absolutely right, in 2017 Nigeria has more boots, more allies, bigger guns and faster Jets than in 1967 (including the ones Mazi Trump is selling to Buratai)

...and you have what... BSS right?

You people should really stick to the Jokes section

More allies?

Yyeske:
IPOB miscreants said Nnamdi kanu who said Yorubas and Hausa-Fulanis should be killed should not be prosecuted but arewa youths only issued an eviction order and must be prosecuted...... IPOB miscreants.
Who are the hypocrites promoting hate here?
Igbo leaders are presently begging emirs, governors, elders in the north and some Kids are running their mouths on nairaland.
Two wrongs don't make a right, arewa youths were wrong but Nnamdi kanu should equally be condemned

Last time I checked, Nnamdi Kanu is standing trial and currently on bail. Are you suffering from amnesia?

fulanmafia:
Err...

Is Cownu or any other Jewish negro now the President or have the Ibos been handed the 2019 ticket?

Probably they now suddenly head all divisions of the armed forces?

Probably the rest of Nigeria had a collective brain blackout and the Yanmiris suddenly gained political relevance & stopped being the national laughing stock?

IPods and delusion

See the national laughing stock here

fulanmafia:
Ojukwu boasted even louder before packing his tail between his legs and running off to Ivory Coast.

Like I said; do anyhow, see anyhow.

1967 is not 2017 mate.

Common play wey UN play with una, una don dey beg.

GavelSlam:
People write any piece of crap they can invent.

Machiavelli1:
WTF is he saying?

What he's saying is that when you call Nigeria from the UK, instead of the UK number you called with appearing on the recipient's phone, a Nigerian local number will appear. This has happened to me a many times too and people will be asking, "when did you come back?"

The reason that is happening though is because the FG through the NCC increased tariff for international inbound calls by more than 500%. This made the foreign network providers to now route their call through local Nigerian numbers so they are charged as local calls.

Cunny man die, Cunny man bury am

obyrich:
All these because of UN interest. Who knows the outcome of the meeting between the American Legislative delegation with El Rufai?

They came to issue him a warning.

To inform him that "parade don change gear" and there's a new sheriff in town.

fulanmafia:
Really?

Nobody plans to do anyhow until you do anyhow...the Arewa youths have succeeded in getting your elders to condemn Lil Kenny and his iPod hate speech...no more sitting on the fence.

By the way, let me check with our able and gallant UN dep. Secretary General Amina Mohammed...

Story for the gods. Hope you read Nnia Nwodo's audacious statement to the AG.

As per Amino Muhammed, I laugh in Ngalmo. We know the Nigerian ethnic stock that pulls strings internationally.

We await Oct. 1st and if you people don't make trouble, we'll do what we have to do to make sure you make trouble so we can take it from there.

fulanmafia:
Oh really? You mean after the entire Ndigbo pleaded and begged across the North for the quit notice to be revoked?

Oh well, if it makes you feel better

UN don tell una say if una do anyhow, una go see anyhow.
