You told them, they were crying like bush babies.

We showed them who owns the land.

You are on your soil Kabiyesi, talk to our slaves the way you like.

Long live the King.

All of you should get lost. he does not need your apology.

you are all bunch of bush babies that like whining and crying.

Even if he said it, there is nothing all of you can do. Do your worst, which is the usual giving lame ultimatum, running to UN and ICC.

even the media knows that y1bos are the easiest to wind up their sentiments and outcries like bush babies.

Another embarrassing crying wolf where there is none. Same with Fashola, same with the Oba and the cardiologist.

Can't this chest beaters just learn?

Four months after the commencement of the dredging of the Calabar Port Channel, work has stopped at the site.

Our correspondent gathered that the dredging work commenced on the port channel in December last year, but the workers had yet to resume after going on a break in January.

The President, Cross River Shippers’ Association, Mr. Mike Ogodo, said in a telephone interview with our correspondent, “Definitely, all stakeholders are concerned because the contract has already been awarded. We want to get value for money.

“I was told by the port managers, EcoMarine, that the workers have not returned to the site since January 2015 perhaps due to the general elections. We cannot tell the extent of work though; the technical details of how deep or wide the dredging should be may not be available to EcoMarine.

“We don’t know the extent of work that has been done. What we are aware of though is that they started late last year and stopped in January.”

A N20bn contract was last year awarded for the dredging of the port channel, whose operation has been affected by the shallowness of the channel.

In the last 18 years, the Federal Government at various times awarded contracts for the dredging of the channel.

The latest contract brings to N32.08bn the amount that has been expended on the dredging of the channel over the years.

The dredging is expected to last two years and increase the draught of the channel from eight metres to 10 metres.

In an effort to open up the Calabar region, the Nigerian Ports Authority on May 25, 2012 entered into a joint venture agreement with the Niger Global Engineering and Technical Services, which gave birth to the Calabar Channel Management Limited.

Like its counterparts, the Lagos Channel Management and the Bonny Channel Management, the CCM is expected to dredge and maintain the Calabar navigational channel.

Dredgers, survey vessels, buoyage tenders, wreck removal cranes and other ancillary marine crafts were reportedly mobilised to the site last year following the official inauguration of the dredging project.

Controversy over contracts to dredge the 84-nautical mile Calabar Port access channel dates back to 1996 when the then Head of State, the late Gen. Sani Abacha, awarded the first contract for N3bn but was never executed.

In 2006, former President Olusegun Obasanjo awarded another contract to two Dutch firms, Van Oord Limited and Jan-de-Nul, for N9.8bn. While Van Oord reportedly got $26m to dredge from Kilometre 0 to 46, Jan-de-Nul got $30m to dredge from Kilometre 46 to 84.

Both companies were expected to scoop out 25 million cubic metres of sand to achieve an overall draught of eight metres. The entire project was subsequently mired in controversy and litigation when the two companies began work on October 19, 2006 and allegedly demobilised from the location in December after excavating the said volume of sand.

However, about 24 kilometres of the channel were left untouched and without buoys on the dredged part. In the absence of buoys, the excavated sand quickly filled the dredged portion and rendered the initial effort useless.

President Goodluck Jonathan had said during the inauguration of the dredging last year that the controversial contract had been executed based on a 2004 survey, which did not take into account the actual volume to be excavated as of the time it was awarded.

He said, “As of the time the Calabar Port was opened for operations, it had a depth of eight metres. Although the port created opportunities in the South-South and West African region, there was a need to increase the depth.

“In 2004, the process to increase the depth from eight metres to 12 metres was initiated. Despite awarding the contract in 2006, the port could not be put to use because the channel had not been dredged to expectation. The contract had been awarded based on a biometric survey conducted in 2004.”

The spokesperson for the Nigerian Ports Authority, Mr. Musa Iliya, could not be reached for comments. However, his deputy, Mr. Suwaib Issa, said, “It is not as if the contractor has packed out of the dredging site, but the pace of the dredging has slowed down due to lack of funds.

“The contractor is saying that funds are not being given to it. If it is going to continue at the site, it will need more funds to execute the project. Work is not going on as it should be in terms of speed.”

Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s father, Prof. James Nwoye Adichie has been kidnapped.

The kidnappers demanded for N50 million. He was kidnapped on Saturday in Enugu.

General, you are more than this nah!

Respect.

Miracle centres at work, Just like miracle babies of baby factories that litters their land.

chernest2002:
Let aboki take it all after all South West have been their slaves since 1914

The same way y1bos have been our defeated slaves for decades.

Sunnybobo3:
1st Nigerian VC of the first University in Yoruba land (UI) was Igbo - Prof. Kenneth Duke

1st VC of the second university in Yoruba land (UNILAG) was Igbo - Professor Njoku.

Doesn't that tell you something?

Yes, they are.

Who appointed them? Azikiwe, based on tribal sentiments. He was the president of the Federation, saddled with the responsibility of appointing VCs. He chose his tribesmen. A clear case of nepotism. Simple as ABC.

Read up on appointment of kenneth dike.

internetpirate:
Who was the first black VC of Unilag? An Igboman!!!

Prof Eni Njoku from Ohafia! Who is teaching who? Nice response you gave to that oaf!!

Who appointed him? The tribalistic Azikiwe.

Samuel Ajayi Crowther taught you how to spell your names

Some devilish people will still tell us Chibok girls scandal is a scam, if these ones disappeared, without the knowledge of everybody.

MCMLXXVI:
Abeg, you're sounding like a dunce.
You made an assertion that you could not prove. Faced with the sad truth that South Eastern children are vastly superior to their SW counterparts, you began to claim that Yoruba students were attending' private schools more. Isn't that just lame?
I gave you a link that at least supports that guy's claim, but you're asking for a publication. Now, the question I'm asking you is, did you present a publication backing your dumb Statement about private school attendance?
Practice what you preach and give us your publication.
I'm waiting.

this demented id1ot, what is hard for you in providing verifiable evidence of y1bs owning 75% of Abuja properties.

If Albert Einstein was like tales by moonlight story tellers like you, he would never had written how E=MC2 for us, for sane minds to verify.

I repeat, gives us the FCTDA publication that shows Y1bos own 75% of Abuja.

kastonkastrol:
you are not far from the truth @ the highlighted. There was one particular girl I know from the east that got 312 as her jamb scores, but do you know the girl couldn't get up to 35 in her post ume exams.. I was like how the _fuck can one score such high points in jamb exam but couldn't get up to 35 in post ume? Ibos defrauding nigerians with exams scores since 1914

when there was no miracle centre for her to write her post ume exam, how will she replicate her dubious scores?

almost everything about them is a fraud. Upto baby making level. For people to descend so low to be defrauding God with baby factories, that says it all?

How can there be no invalid vote in a whole state? They took election rigging to another level in 2015. despite all, GEJ still lost. Bunch of fraudulent people.

MCMLXXVI:
Asking for publication, have you given us the publication that declared your Yorubas as attending more private schools than others?
Please do that before we can take you serious, moronn

You made an assertion and i asked you for publication to back up your make-me-happy fallacy.

I made an assertion that even an average brain can deduce. Alas, I thought your brain was pentium 1 and expected you to comprehend the logic a little, but i was wrong. Your medulla is actually at par with abacus.

kastonkastrol:
guy go and check the list of best graduating students of odualand both in high institutions and secondary schools before you come here to spit trash. warey paraku

Do not mind that old bitter man.

he should be spending his last days to prepare for eternity, rather he is always reminiscing on the way his whole units were sent to the world beyond by NA during the Biafra war.

MCMLXXVI:
Nigga man, stop ranting and give me that researched publication.
How hard could it be, you brain dead coward?

As usual, chest beater and akpu filed chest starts beating the air, once defeated.

I asked for the publication, so present it. Do not get it twisted.

MCMLXXVI:
The coward is retreating after his inability to provide any source that would even back his empty claims, just like the others who crowned themselves as the most educated right from their beer parlors.
There goes the dark side of self delusion.
Loser

retreating?

funny you. We run threads running into 100 pages with your Generals and not water heads like you, that lack substance and quality.

run along boy.

Duru1:
When there are no returnees from Sierra Leone to claim as Yoruba, the ingrates develop a convulsion.

have you forgotten that one of our returnees from Saro taught youhow to spell your names --- Samuel Ajayi crowther.

Your names such as shindima shinwere, shindodo, shinazor, shinaduru

kastonkastrol:
I don't understand ibo people anymore. Before I thought is inferiority complex that is eating a whole lot of them up, but with the way and manner they are going about this days, I believe there something more to it..

How can any sane person say ibos are more brilliant than yorubas? That's pure madness and gross _stupidity. From my nursery till my last day in the university, no ibo person has ever come top of my class, they are always left behind. The most intelligent one among them I hav ever come acrossed(a girl obviously) graduated with a 2nd class lower back in university days.

Just visit any of their schools in the east and see how ibo people are buying good merits that they never worked for. Even their kids that usually pass waec, neco and jamb exams in alaigbo are exposed to expo. Ibo people are funny though

That is why they can only pass exams , hardly can they hold their ground in cerebral discourse.

That is why their reasoning always devoid logic to rational minds.

Duru1:
It is a fact that jackasses such as you quarrel with statistics. The undisputable numbers do not give your silly propagandist endeavor to maneuver.

LOl.

Duru1 aka deridegull and dede1. I do not have problem with statistics. The beauty of statistics is , you see hwat you want to see.

what i saw in the statistics on the admission into kings college are human desertification, human migration and brain drain of alaigbo. Simple as ABC.

MCMLXXVI:
Dunce!!! Is this the research paper detailing the number of Yoruba Children attending more private schools than others you were supposed to present?
Have you forgotten you said this?...



Why not spare yourself the embarrassment by providing evidence to your claim?
You sound like a classic idioot, and your epistles are not helping matters. Chei! DULLARD

LOl.

I am done with you imbeci1es. You lack the mental capacity to play in a game like this.

That is why i love that dude called chino11 or oneeast. You are a neophyte in this game. Try arder next time, Ariara spare part seller during the day, highway robber during the night.

Get off this thread.

emmatok:
The last election has really expose their fallacy about Lagos.
In-fact we have more Northerners in Lagos than Igbos.

The northerners will silently do their business and mind their business.

Not the chest beating empty barrels.

What is there to celebrate in admission into Kings College? Don't you think something is wrong with this people? this is a clear case of inferiority complex.

emmatok:
Ironically, 80% of their student leave in SW and claimed to be Lagos indigines , but when it came to documenting their achievement they denounce Lagos and call their states.

I remember Tinubu telling them the stay in Lagos during the Population Censors, but they all ran to their villages to be counted.

The funny thing i do hear nowadays that sounds weird to me is '' I am Lagos Ibo'' -- as if that is an ethnic group.

Jokers and jesters.

How can people be celebrating admission into Kings College in 2015. This is ridiculous.

MCMLXXVI:
The facts son, the facts. Get them or shut the fVck up.
Isn't it funny how you were asking for researched documents a few minutes ago but can't show facts that Yorubas attend private schools more than others.
I guess that's the type of poor reasoning you're fed in the South West which is why your students in Osun state are failing massively, finishing at the bottom level nationwide

Please present those facts and stop shooting yourself on the foot.

Some things are simple logic boy. If you cannot figure it out, then you need to grow up or upgrade your pentium 1 brain.

How will your site your business where there is no customer base or need for it? the schools are located where they have market for it. Simple as ABC. Simple logic that s not common.

Proof to us that Y1bos own 75% of Houses in Abuja? The same way you told us you own 101% of Lagos, 100% of PH, 99% of Kano and 90% of Warri.

Duru1:
Shut up your putrid mouth. You have been longing to join your favorite routine. A ninny such as you does not need any invitation.

You this old dude suffering from cerebral palsy, due to your post war traumatic stress, respect yourself tonight.

StBlack1:
Imagine Ebonyi has more more students who passed WAEC than Ekiti and Ondo has.

I'll disgrace these lots with a link showing their region with highest levels of malpractices. Just watch me blow them to smithereens soon with the link. !!

U dey mind those mofos.

Highest exam malpractices is their land.

Highest election rigging and violence, is their land.

Highest crime is their land.

Highest everything and anything negative in this country, is alaigbo.

We are now complaining that even kids are runniag away from there. Why wont they. Who will like to grow upin such environment.

Even babies will soon start protesting not to be delivered on their soil.

Everything about them is about unnecessary competition, which is an evidence of inferiority complex.

kastonkastrol:
funny people plenty for this nairaland sha. When the heck did ibo people especially the boys started going to school that Imo state suddenly have the highest number of profs in Nigeria? Make I laugh again

They are becoming professors in their 2by2 shops located in Ariara, Ladipo, Aspamda and Alaba.

Na so people dey become professors?

You dey mind those people that all their lives revolves around unwarranted competition, born of inherited inferiority complex.

Sunnybobo3:
Houses in Abuja are registered with the FCTDA and are registered to the names of the owners who fill out their states of origin on the form.

WHat is wrong in getting FCTDA in publishing the list for us to authenticate your beer parlour tales by moonlight?

Just get Ohaneze to issue ultimatum to FCTDA onthe publication of names of hose owners in FCT. Or as ususla, run to UN or ICC again.

emmatok:
You seem not to have learnt about these peeps.

They like unnecessary competition(even when their is no competitor) and showmanship.

Its best to ignore and laugh at them.

I saw the thread and did not want to be part of it, until one joker out of them invited me, running their loud mouths, chest beating anddisplaying their eternal idiocy.

I gladly oblige them.

CaptainOjemba:
The thread is about: A Geopolitical Regional Analysis Of KING’S COLLEGE 2014/15 Merit Admission List not about useless rnting

I know the topic red cap wearing dude.

I have told you our kids attend private schools and not public schools we left behind decades ago.

Keep celebrating your backwardness. in the olden days Kings College was a school of choice for the creme de la creme of the society. That stopped in 2000.


Celebrating admission into Kings College in 2015, makes you look Ali baba and the 40 thieves.

MCMLXXVI:
DUNCE, See how poor your "simple logic" is? Is that the publication you should be presenting?
Kings College is also on your soil, but has that made Yorubas the majority?
The same way you're making this claim is the same way I can validate El Rufai's proclamation simply on the grounds that, having been the FCT minister, he was better placed to Know which lands were owned by whom.
See how you've just been outsmarted, dunce?

PLEASE, provide your researched publication validating your claim that Yorubas have ditched public schools for private schools.
We're waiting

Really!!!!! So, El Rufai knows all the houses in Abuja and name of owners of the houses. This is ridiculous. I cant believe that this is coming from another Ariara Market Graduate.

Are majority of best private schools in SW? Yes. Both secondary and Unis? Yes.

That is an undebatable fact, that even a born blind could see.

DOes El Rufai knows the name of all the houses owners in Abuja? capita NO. Is that a fact? Yes.

Make this exercise very easy for us. Ohaneze should tell FCT to publish the names of all the house owners and that will be taken as a fact.

FOr now, it is a fallacy and make-me-happy lies of y1bos.

CaptainOjemba:
Where is aresa aka fash cleaner can you comment about the topic and stop talking like agbero at oshodi oke

LOL.

Oshodi oke ko, oshodi isale ni,

Get busy on how how you will stem the wave of human migration, huma desertification and brain drain bedeviling alaigbo first. Write 10,000 words thesis on how to reverse this trend that has gotten so bad to the level that kids and infants too are now migrating out of your gully eroded land.

At this rate, by 2017, babies will be fighting their mothers, refusing to be delivered on alaigbo soil.
