BRASH:
Show me a post to prove your point. I can only acknowledge good things done by politicians, but I can never fight anybody because of them. I,am not foolish.

I am not saying you are foolish but read your post I quoted again. It's obvious you have invested too much emotions in Obaseki's course. Isn't it obvious

Nigerian politicians don't worth it.

lwise:
can you share 2k for random 70,000 people.
Some people thinks with their furo

You mean those people are 70000

Have you seen just 10000 crowd before

Lol... Obaseki can't survive this storm. He's a political neophyte.

martineverest:
lol....we are waiting for it.... impeachment of obaseki will be the end of oshiomole in edoland

Lol... When will all these chest beating be over

BRASH:
May Thunder destroy all of you. idiots. Broom weilding witches and umbrella carrying demons, may desaster never depart from your lives. Fools. As for the nitwits killing themselves over these theives, I pray you all have sense.

Lol... Why so emotional about the whole thing

You are even among the bolded. I mean the people you are advising.

Another "Efe" in the house.

Lol... This one na prediction not prophecy.

We all can see that.

Firespitter:
You dare not sleep in a house in any yoruba land without hanging otumokpor at your gate or door. Who born you? U go just wake up with a missing skull.


South East governors should start sensitization on danger of moving to any yoruba enclave. Going to yoruba land is like going to Taliban controlled Afghanistan. Very dangerous.

Lol... Yet the same Ibadan is the "America" of many of your kinsmen.

You guys are the worst hypocrites ever.

lol

hyduffy:
Steady light for my area here.. Owoseni no be beans... Obaseki we know... Edo no be lagos. No Sidon Look..

Lol... You dey stay Owoseni you still dey deride Lagos. ok o

tommy589:
"Let bygones be bygones"

Lol and allow all the igbo lies against other tribes especially the ones against Yoruba to stand

The reality is, with the settings of governance then, Igbos thought they will rule Nigeria forever.

The initial setup was actually designed to favor Igbos.
Modified:
Azikiwe (an igbo man) stood against secession by any tribe even when leaders from other tribes wanted it in the constitution.

Azikiwe teamed up with the north instead of Awolowo because he thought they can be easily manipulated.

Ojukwu (another Igbo man)foiled Adaka Boro attempt to secede and ensured he was jailed.

Aguiyi Ironsi (also Igbo) returned the country back to unitary system.

But when they realized that the political system was no longer in their favor, and their soldiers were relegated in the Nigerian army, they wanted to secede and take other minorities along with them in Biafra.

What do we call that

lol

lol

loopman:
And those two are the architects of what ever problem is bedeviling the Igbos in Nigeria in particular and Nigeria in general

1: Azikwe colluded with the Northern power brokers to become ceremonial president when he could have been the Prime Minister if he has agreed to form the govt with AG rather than NPC

The same Azikwe had earlier worked against Awolowo to insert the secession clause in the independence constitution

2: Aguiyi Ironsi Mr Decree 34 ( the decree that abolished the regions and regional government and took all the power to the center in anticipation that Igbos will rule Nigeria forever) and his refusal to promptly try the coup plotters of Jan 15/16 of 1966.

Igbos actually thought they will rule Nigeria for ever.

Igbos always blame others except themselves.
Let's see them in history. This write up is a good read. Enjoy!

Do you know that when Azikiwe formed government with Tafawa Balewa in the early 60s (Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria and Azikiwe was the ceremonial president) this was what we had:

Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence staff was fron SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
University of Ibadan VC from SE
North resisted same at ABU!
Still there was dissatisfaction by SE, the officers from the region killed this same Balewa!!!!
Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria, SE has 37, none was killed. 8 from the north, all of them were killed. 10 from the west, 2 were killed.
Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!
We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth. This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth.....at times when lies litter the streets. There is the tendency to think those are truths and facts.
"What follows are documented facts that can be cross checked for authenticity!"
Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.
“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from regions and handed it to the central govt because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the head of state then. Today, he is shouting restructuring that he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”. Let those who have ears
WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES IN NIGERIA TODAY:
The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausafulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria. In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgement were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation.
The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.
However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914. I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position.
Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300. This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended.
To that end, Ahmadu Bello, speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 described the amalgamation as "The mistake of 1914 which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country".
Awolowo, speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation. Awolowo added that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy this freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe.
But Nnamdi Azikiwe, speaking for the Igbos, denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions. He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable.
After moving the motion for independece in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future. According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance. But Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria. At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution. While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe
Before independece, Tafawa Balewa too had in a public speech described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in. But Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too. Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned.
For those in doubt, here is a link of one of the numerous instances in which Nnamdi Azikiwe fought against the secession clause proposal for the future Nigeria constitution.

I knew it.

Obaseki is confused.

Wow....

Some persons will still come here and shout tyranny.

But they will never see tyranny in all Obaseki's acts.

No. I am not. It shows that you are not getting the Bible. The logo killeth but the rhema giveth life. You are not innocent. And the Bible says who doesn't take correction

Proverbs 29:1 A man who remains stiff-necked after much reproof will ...
He who is often reproved, yet stiffens his neck, will suddenly be broken beyond healing. ... If you get more stubborn every time you are corrected, one day you will be crushed and never ... Bye

So you know Bible like this and you placed such a cause on someone who was only airing his opinion without even talking to you.
FYI, this is politics and you can't force anyone to think like you. So stop being emotional unnecessarily.

Hypocrite.

The Igbos like to blame other tribes in this South (especially Yorubas) for the country woes except themselves. But history shows that they have caused more damage.

Nigeria and Southern Nigeria did not start in 2015 so it's only small children with no knowledge of history that sw are the problems of southern Nigeria.

The only difference is that Yorubas will never complain, bitter or call others betrayer because they understand politics.

btw, there is nothing is opposing Gej because as a result of his incompetence expecting Buhari to better. And fighting Buhari again if he seems to be worse.

Sowore fought Abacha, Obasanjo, Gej and now he's fighting Buhari. We should be less emotional about the whole thing.

Just say you hate GEJ, there is no way any sensible person will compare Buhari and GEJ on issues of human rights.

The problem with you guys is that you are too emotional unnecessarily. You don't need to hate Gej before you vote him out.

And there is nothing wrong for someone to fight against Gej incompetence then and still fight against Buhari's incompetence now.

Check this thread for the picture of Oshiomhole wearing cap during his visit to Oba of Binin with President Buhari.He took a close picture with him with his cap on.
Oshiomhole is an old fool that shouldn't be taken serious.
The election is actually between Oshiomhole and Obaseki.

That was not inside the king's chamber na.

They were already outside the chamber taking pictures.

Show us a picture where Oshiomole was standing in front of the Oba with his cap on.

Haba! That was not inside the king's chamber na.

Everybody know you don't have your cap on inside the king's chamber.
