I feel happy. Abia folks should continue to promote developmental strides in Abia state. But you must get right next gubernatorial election, you must never elect salary payer
jaxxy: South east has more serious political problems to deal with than this. No good candidates and if a good one comes from the wrong party they won’t vote for him and suffer for another 4 or 8 years. Lolz
according to low lives which your unfortunate self is Amon....g
Invitationn: Baba it's still politics. That's why globally, everyone agrees"politics is a dirty game". These are actors acting on their own. Trying to impress the money man for favors.
[/s] unam ikot. And you want Igbos to be in your useless Nigeria playing archaic politics. Politics is game, idiots plays it dirty
Emekaonline: What did you biafool just say? How do you guys exalt and worship Obi Pandora, the biggest thief of our time who diverted his state money to family business and refused to even declare it? Hahaha I have forgotten that he is not a thief only Tinubu is a thief in your demented brain. There are many political thief in your deserted land but you will not look at their side but poke nosing in another's man land. Are you guys cursed?
Emekaonline: Unfortunately you and your unproductive family could not be without flooding and rushinhg to the same street of Lagos. Obviously you guys are shameless.
[/s] if you think Igbos go to Lagos because it is Yorubaland, then you're of most men miserable. Last I checked, even in Boko Haram ravaged borno State, Igbos are there doing business. Even in Somalia. Take it from me, Igbos are in Afghanistan running the show and calling the shot. It has nothing to do with Yorubaland. Lagos is no man's land. If you think otherwise, support our quest for referendum. By the way, bayo is here in the east selling agbo and jedijedi

*TOLERANCE BECOMING A CRIME* *By Dr Chinedu Akabuike*
1. Why do we hate Tinubu? What for? 2. Tinubu never worked with federal or Eastern Nigeria let alone stealing money from Ndi Igbo. He never worked as Minister or taken any Federal Appointment! 3. He never joined APGA let alone sabotaging our Party's interest? 4. Tinubu didn't meddle in Igbo internal affairs either! 5. Why do we call him thief? What did he steal? 6. We call Yoruba "slaves". We never reflect on what it means to be slaves in the true sense of the word. 7. We are putting mouth in Lagos politics without caution, yet we have a proverb that says it is the foolish housefly that follows the corpse into the grave. 8. Can Yoruba man become an Association or Local Government Chairman in the East? Let us be sincere with ourselves. Yet, we enjoy all these privileges here including Assembly Membership! 9. Why asking for what we can't give? 10. We are here helping the "slaves" to develop their land. Who then is a slave? 10b. You call their city a no man's land so that we can further be enslaved slaving to develop it, and our generations are wasted gloating over mere privileges. Who is a slave? Do we actually think? 11. Can Yoruba tell Okorocha "o to gee" in Owerri? He doesn't even need it. He is too intelligent to die for a pot of ofe manu or nothing. 12. After the civil war, for many of us who were old enough to have witnessed it, the Yoruba were the first to open their arms to receive and accept us as we were, crude savages in search for means of survival. It was regardless of what we equally did to them before and during the civil war. No party to the civil war was innocent! I also remember not paying any rent among Yoruba guys without a penny for my first 3years in Lagos and another 2 years in Ibadan. 13. Can we survive Yoruba attack in Yoruba land if they actually mean to? Will an Mbaise man cooperate with the Nsukka or Afikpo, or the Imo with Anambara? 14. If we all decide to relocate at once, Babangida send me home phenomena is still in the memory of some of us who survived the incessant and uncontrollable spate of robbery across the Onitsha bridge. How many people will want to go in spite of our empty pride? 15. If Yoruba people are as foolish as we foolishly think, why agitating? How will agitating be to our benefit? 16. Why not "O to gee" in Abia, Enugu or Owerri? 17. Can a man from Aba become a Commissioner or Perm.Sec. in Enugu State Civil Service? Yet it happened here! Why not be careful. 18. We adopted APGA and but "wisely" voted PDP. How was Tinubu our headache. Was he the cause of our downfall? Why always blame others for our inabilities and want to take glory for any small thing we think we have done well and even overblow it? 19. We claim we were so creative during the civil war. Now history. We also claim every made in Nigeria is from Aba. But go to Oyo and Osogbo to see what "lazy" mechanics are doing quietly in the automobile industry, yet we make noise that other ethnics are either mumu or lazy except we (alagbara ma mero baba ole; the most hardworking humans who cannot develop their own land unfortunately). 20. Why looking for avoidable problem? Why? 21. It was you in the North being attacked, in Malaysia being killed, in Gabon and Ghana being molested. 99.9% of Nigerians killed in South Africa are of Igbo extraction, and sometimes by fellow 'hardworking' Igbo. Why? 22. We choose Kanu and he dictates to us without consultation with any one of us. They choose Tinubu who becomes a hero among them by bowing to or adopting the choice of their majority. Why are we angry? We choose Azikwe and they choose Awolowo. How are they more mumuish followers than ourselves? Zik became a President and we gained from it, Awo was only a Premier, but we are only struggling to beat their records in all ramifications including education till today. How are they mumus? We choose APGA and they choose APC, why agitating? Yoruba are yet to say Tinubu is their problem why do we want to die for nothing? Why working in APGA but planning to collect salaries in APC? I pray for the success of Biafra, but do we still remember that as Igbo we will automatically become foreigners on the streets of the Lagos we call a no Man's land? How many of us will actually want to relocate home, should Biafra actualises or if if citizenship is on the condition that you relinquish all other citizenship in Africa? I leave that answer to the individual. Nwayo nwayo biko unu.
yorubarere: All politics is local. Make sure you vote and not just wail online on the election day.
[/s] And politics being local to you means, nailing a coffin, and writing the name of anyone that opposes your thin god, because your thin god has so stolen from you that, he has enough money to buy you and your family
This is the politics the bullion Van lord and his uneducated thugs plays in southwest, and is called sophistication.
Bunch of Omo ales and agberos rumming around the streets of Lagos, without a plan for their future, only waiting for freebies from their pampers wearing, okpolo-eyed druggy, so as to attack opposition voices
ResidentSnitch: You are obviously shortsighted in your opinion. Nothing stops you from talking about the other people who were killed alongside Sule and their achievements, if any. They didn't denigrate anyone; so allow them to mourn in peace.
[/s] you're the one that is drained of any iota of humanity.why play up sule as if he worths more than others?. Just because of first class?. Do you know what academic qualifications others that died along had, or are pursuing?. Shortsightedness is your real name. No one's death is more unfortunate than the other. Let's condemn the death and remove first class and north from the entire incident. Was he killed because he had first class?. Ediot
There are other people that died in the unfortunate incident. The killing is highly condemnable. But it's wickedness to only play up this first class ish as if others that lost their lives doesn't matter because they're not first class graduates. Our reporters are bunch of idiots
When US and Canada increases more of their already stringent Visa processes now, everybody will be crying, not knowing that our brothers from the Oduduwanistan are the one's demarketing the already damaged global image of Nigeria
Yoruba brethrens, it is well oh. You people are making Nigeria "greater".
Hushpuppy own never finish, now na another group.
When it comes to scamming, internet fraud, yahoo Yahoo, yahoo plus, skull mining, drugs and oluwole(forgery), this our oduduwanistan brethrens are outclassing other Nigerians globally.
Hushpuppy murdered the name Nigeria is Dubai, now these bunch of lazy glutinous criminals are uping their known games in our safe heavens of US and Canada.
There's no rights to leadership in Nigeria, it's either you work hard for it or you fight for it. You can't be sitting there waiting for zoning...it isn't done that way.
I come in peace.
Can you meticulously tell us how to work for it, which other Igbo politicians hasn't worked
rottennaija: Threat will not get them anywhere. This people need to learn how to play politics.
[/s] I had to reread the post again, to see where the threat ish comes from. You must be high on rotten ewedu to see threat in place of genuine concern. You don't seem to understand the fears and worries of ohanaeze ndigbo who has been prevailing on undecided Igbo elites not to buy the IPOBs opinion, that they're negotiating for a better deal for ndigbo within the Nigerian space.
You don't seem to understand that the far right groups like the IPOB,massob, etc are winning already due to the glaring marginalization of Igbos in Nigeria.
Let me make it clear, I NOT a member of any secessionist group. I belief we can reclaim our place in the wider Nigeria, if we play Nigerian kind of politics.
But you see the way this idiot called udele speaks is running around, I'm sure nemesis awaits you. There are many Igbos who does not share IPOB midel of freedom fighting. But we're not as stupid as you are
You're feeling on top of the world now bro. You feel loved and protected by those who killed your fathers. I laugh. Continue, agbasa oso aguoo miles. Onwero
IGBOSON1: Looks like the proposed deep sea port at Obuakwu is back on stream (pardon the pun ). This is to compliment and feed the Enyimba Economic City.
The river channel leading to the port from the Atlantic is to be dredged and widened.
Igboson nwoke oma why not use this to create thread.
But Ikpeazu seems to be playing politics. Election is few months. This is likely unrealizable under this current administration. Igbos has unheard billionaires, I've not heard of this zoros energy.
Even majority of southwesterners and the learned among never want tinubu as president. They know he's corrupt and power drunk and very sick. It's only the agberos among them and his political boys and clamoring for him apparently to drain him before ditching him
colorsofrainbow: Stop deceiving yourself. They are now denying their Tinubu upandan
Tinubu has not and never been a northern candidate. Tell only mouthed it so as to play him and keep him at bay. They know, Tinubu is corruption personified, and damn sick
lastcall: Nothing to do with competency and getting the country out of the doldrums. Very sad indeed. Una no wan learn abi
Nigerian politics has nothing to do with competence, it's all about North, and what the north wants. It's all about isolating Igbos, for questioning northern political greed, incompetence, and largely because of the fear of division which the north dreads. If they want competence, they Knows where to look.
First of, when you hear APC, it's simply northern political machine, with Southwest as an appendage for national face outlook.
Southwest in general, with Tinubu in particular, and Osibanjo, has been played long time ago. An average northern politician doesn't belief in Tinubu presidency, he was simply used to gather support for Buhari, and has been rewarded with a VP slot which he gave Osibanjo, and they know he is wearing corruption tag. Osibanjo on the other hand, is a nobody to an average northern politician, he is just in the picture because of Tinubu, they neither regard him nor see him as a heavy weight fit for the office of the presidency, hence, not in their calendar.
I am Igbo from Southeast, yes we have strong argument for presidency, but I can categorically tell you that, North cannot at least at the moment, think of giving us power directly(this is the hardest truth), they are scared to their bones, due to the decades of injustice dished on us. Yes they have slaves like Rochas and Orji uzo who they could have handed power over to, but I can categorically tell you, they don't trust them intoto.
Why Amaechi and ditto southsouth?
1. That's Northern shortest cut to presidency come 2027. Amaechi will be elected, but his presidency will be plagued with allegation of corruption, truth or not, it's simply to smare him, tell northern voters that he's kworupt and cannot be elected in 2027, and also because southsouth via Amaechi has completed their 8yrs which eluded Jonathan. He will be campaigned against, and El rufai who is most likely to be his running mate, will fight him, in the name of fighting against his corruption tendencies, and El rufai will contest in 2027.
2. North feels with the name Amaechi, and ikwerre being kind of close to Igbos, they will start hyping Amaechi as an Igbo man, that he is representing Igbos, just to assuage dissenting Igbo/SE marginalization voices. This will divide Igbos, because some wouldn't want to give Amaechi headache, because Amaechi himself will start claiming Igbo in his campaigns while telling northern power brokers that he is Ikwerre and only claiming Igbo to win SE heart. And should Igbo elites go international with the marginalization story, Amaechi will claim Igbo and north will tell them that you see Igbo isn't marginalized.
3. So as to severe SE and SS relationship, isolate SE. This is because, SS will be empowered to taunt Igbos, and make themselves feel like the beautiful bride of the North, and their crude oil petrodollars used to build up north, because Amaechi will try to make the north happy in his first tenure to show them he's loyal and obedient. He will site so many projects in the north as campaign for northern support for second tenure.
