amaechi1: Every nation is a product of the people. If you do yours and I do mine this very nation will be better. We have abandon our civil responsibilities and watch the those who has been representing us from east to play the card of ethnicity and bigotry just for their selfish interest. Now the table has turn against them, they remember Biafra and restructuring. They should restructure their attitude towards our public funds and fight for our interest not theirs. When you don't support their selfish desires they brand you all sorts of names. You're an imposter, stop claiming to be Igbo. Be proud of your yoruba heritage. |

amaechi1: I don't believe in what you believed, that is why I am not an Igbo. You never can tell if we may had any dealing together today. There are more to life than you see it. An intelligent agitator would put his reasons forward to convince the other person, than to rain insults. Just last year scotland voted to remain in the UK. You're talking about insult, do you know the amount of insults Cameron received before conceding to the Scotland and BREXIT referendum demands. ? |

amaechi1: How I wish the over rated Biafra issue will be put to e referendum, people will be shocked that most Igbo would rather stay in as Nigeria. Definitely, my vote will not go Biafra. I would rather prefer our greedy politician to restructure their appetite to our public fund.
I have already develop tough skin, because I know some of my brothers will start to insulting themselves not me now. That your moniker is Amaechi does not make you an Igbo man. So Stop this divisive comments. There is no way everybody will support biafra, what matters is majority votes. mind you, not all British voted for LEAVE Britain voted themselves out of Europe with just little over 51% majority. |

The world woke up on Friday to receive the news that the United Kingdom had voted to pull out of European Union (EU). Apart from Greenland, one of Denmark’s overseas territories, which gained a greater degree of self-government after a referendum in 1982, no nation state has ever left the EU. But a total of 33.6 million people across 41,000 polling stations participated in a referendum with results – 51.9 for BREXIT and 48.1 against it – sending waves of shock across the world. In Nigeria, the agitation for the sovereignty of Biafra regained momentum, particularly on social media, after the UK voters made the historic decision. The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) are the groups in the frontline of the campaign for a separate state, and the appeal of the federal government has not made them shift ground. The violence recorded during protests organised by these groups has been a source of concern. The effect of the recent one which occurred less than a month ago is still being felt. While commemorating the 50th anniversary of the declaration of Biafra, campaigners clashed with security agents in different parts of the south-east. Both sides have continued to trade blame for the incidents, which left tales of woe. Many were killed, some hospitalised, property destroyed, and some are still in detention. What is the solution to this problem? Should Nigeria hold a referendum to put the agitation to the test? We would like to hear from you. SHOULD THERE BE A REFERENDUM ON BIAFRA? https://www.thecable.ng/poll-referendum-held-biafra |

Since then, development got replaced with indebtedness, promise and fail etc Today, everything Okorocha say or do is to please the northerners, even if it means the death of all imolites. I'm very sure this controversial grazing bill will fail woefully in other Igbo states except Imo State just because of bottomless pit the governor jumped into. You nailed it. |

Step 1 They tell each of them that he is a presidential material; that he would be the First Executive President of Nigeria from Igboland. Step 2 They tell them to contribute money to the party so that their influence within the party would grow. The Governor under this pressure will look for the money in his state's treasury while the DSS and EFCC are taking notes. Step 3 They will send the DSS and EFCC after the Governor for the monies missing at the State Treasury. And the Governor under watch now runs to the Northern Leaders for help so that these agencies will leave him alone. Step 4 The Northern Leaders will now tell the Governor what they want - Grazing Reserve bill, denunciation of Biafra; Silence when peaceful demonstrators are killed in your State or when communities are invaded by blood-thirsty land grabbers or when your people are shot in churches for grieving the dead; more money to settle the Oga on top and all the orishi rishi of Ranka dede feudalism. Step 5 With the Governor on their Leash, the blackmail will be endless and the cowardice and compromise of Igbo interest will continue. SOLUTION: Peaceful mass protest against any anti-Igbo action or legislation. Otherwise, when they blackmail your Governor, he gets the law makers by all means to do what the northern elders want. Please, share this revelation until every Igbo reads it! |

Foreign Affairs › Vladimir Putin More Admired Across The World Than Dalai Lama And Pope Francis. by TheOnlyWiseMan(op): 9:00am On May 10, 2016 |
VladimirPutin is admired more than Pope Francis and the Dalai Lama, according to a new survey. YouGov’s “world’s most admired” poll for 2016 places the Russian president sixth out of the top 20 most admired men while the Dalai Lama is ranked 8th and Pope Francis at 13th. Microsoft CEO Bill Gates tops the list for the second year running followed by Barack Obama, Xi Jinping, Jackie Chan and Stephen Hawking. Hawking was voted the most admired man in the UK. The world’s most admired woman was Angelina Jolie. Queen Elizabeth II, Hillary Clinton, Oprah Winfrey and Michelle Obama complete the top five. In the UK alone, the Queen was ranked the most admired woman followed by Malala Yousafzai and Aung San Suu Kyi. Controversial individuals also made the list with Donald Trump ranked the 18th most admired man in the world, beating Democrat rival Bernie Sanders who only just edged into the top 20. The leader of the French far-right National Front party, Marine Le Pen, also made the top 20 most admired women in the world. Aside from personalities from the politics and business world, various entertainers were also ranked. Celine Dion, Sandra Bullock, Shakira, Emma Watson and Taylor Swift were a few of the names to be included in the top 20 women. For men, David Beckham and Lionel Messi from the sporting world both ranked higher than Pope Francis. The poll was reached after the polling company asked panellists across 30 countries the men and women they admire the most. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/vladimir-putin-more-admired-across-the-world-than-dalai-lama-and-pope-francis-according-to-poll-a7020261.html |

Guys you need to check my fb page [size=15pt] Please read and thank me later. [/size] [size=18pt] Dasuki Floors FG, as ECOWAS Court Assumes Jurisdiction in His Case [/size]
Tobi Soniyi in Abuja
The former National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Muhammed Sambo Dasuki (rtd), on Monday at the Economic Community for West African States (ECOWAS) Court won the first leg of his case challenging his alleged unlawful arrest and detention without trial since December last year by the federal government.
The court in Abuja ruled that it has jurisdiction to entertain the suit brought before it by Dasuki for the enforcement of his fundamental rights to liberty and to own properties as enshrined in the provisions of the Nigerian 1999 constitution and African Charter on fundamental rights of persons.
In the ruling delivered by Justice Friday Chijoke Nwoke, the ECOWAS court dismissed outright the objection of the government against Dusuki’s suit on the ground that the objection was misplaced, misconceived, frivolous and lacked merit.
Justice Nwoke in the unanimous ruling of the 3-member panel of the court held that the claim of government that Dasuki’s case emanated from his trial on certain offences was inappropriate and being basis for its objection to the applicants case in this matter could not hold water since the reliefs sought by Dasuki have nothing to do with the ongoing trial at the domestic courts of Nigeria.
The justices said that in their own opinion, the claim of government that Dasuki ought to have filed contempt charge against the Nigerian government for disobeying court orders that admitted him to bail but flouted by the government was not sustainable because his the case of applicant was not ambiguous, in that it was not based on any criminal trial in any court.
Justice Nwoke said that at any rate, the case of Nigerian government could not stand in the face of the law because there was no evidence that Dasuki had filed similar pending matter in any international court and that even if he had similar matter in any Nigerian court up to Supreme Court, such domestic courts could not have the status of international court as envisaged in the treaty in which Nigeria was a signatory.
He ruled: “In our opinion, what Dasuki brought before us as a case is an issue for the enforcement of his fundamental rights to liberty and own property and against unlawful arrest, unlawful detention and unlawful seizure of properties without any court order or warrant of arrest.
“From the totality of the issues brought before this court, it is clear and there is no ambiguity that the applicant is seeking enforcement of his right to freedom and not on the issue of his trial for any alleged offence before any Nigerian court”.
