PoliticsRe: IPOB To Buhari: Tell Us What You Did To Kanu by TheSonOfMark(m): 8:40am On Sep 28, 2017
nairavsdollars:
Shame on you bloody IPOBIANS. Your runaway leader saI'd anyone who tries to arrest me will die. The soldiers came to arrest him and he fled. What's Buhari's own in this?
There was no attempt at arresting Kanu. The violent onslaught by military were targeted killings to send a message of superiority to Kanu and other secessionists.

Arresting Kanu would have been relatively easy since he made public appearances before the recent killings. The DSS could easily have handled that, the legality of the arrest being no hindrance since its been flouting court orders.

The military killed people protesting for their rights in Umuahia , just like it did to the residents of Odi. That's what the military is being castigated for.

If you think there's a justification for killing innocent people then you need to book a thousand therapy sessions with a psychiatrist.

He doesn't work for mere mortals. They work for him.
On the contrary, gods are benevolent to the mortals they are pleased with and they bless them, in this case, with assists.

Football gods assist the 'mere mortals' to be great.

Messi assisted Suarez in getting the Pichichi award.

Messi assisted Suarez (and others) to become greater.

Messi is a god.

That's about it.

FamilyRe: Shocking Attitude Of Men To Rape by TheSonOfMark(m): 4:19pm On Sep 27, 2017
While I believe rape is a topical issue which shouldn't be swept beneath floor coverings and a significant number of men are perpetrators of the despicable act, I think (and it is obvious) that this report seems fabricated or exaggerated.

It seems like the propaganda of sadistic feminists-cum-misandrists with the sole aim of castigating the menfolk.

Darn! Read the responses to the questionnaire. They seem like the replies of deranged psychopaths, not everyday men.

Aditan... Probably a worthy rival to afang when prepared with enough waterleaves.


dat soup is just too good,especially with lots of pepper..lolz i like pepper
We certainly share the same sentiments about it. Too good, way too good.

About your love for pepper: Now I am curious. You grew up amongst South-Westerners ( they are famous for the spice) or just a personal thing?

greatnaija01:
congrats on your arrogant ignorance
This, this fanatic-like response to valid questions about religious beliefs, by religious folks is why atheists or those living in denial of divinity nearly always score more against you, me, us in such arguments.

His question is valid. Certain beliefs are baseless yet Christians and , by extension, theists try to allows justify them.

Why attend church programmes in the morning of weekdays when you should be out earning your coin? Even the Bible supports backing up your faith with work, hard work.

Why should you allow a mere mortal call God's church his own yet you still contribute financially and otherwise to build his empire?

Why give any man on a three-piece suit who screams even with a microphone the "My daddy-in-Lord" tag yet you have to book appointments weeks ahead with his saucy secretary to see him or pay for forms even?

Why believe my security is guaranteed by some church-branded 'anointing oil' when my supposed 'daddy-in-Lord' and 'mentor' has a human wall of hunky, gun-weilding brutes with the 'bodyguards' tag protecting him?

Answer his questions if you will and cease laying credence to the stereotype that religious folks are over-sentimental fanatics.

Christianity EtcRe: Christians/Muslims/Others - Why Do You Want Everyone Else To Join Your Religion by TheSonOfMark(m): 11:26pm On Sep 26, 2017
I don't want anyone to join my religion.

Christianity wasn't suppose to be a religion; scratch that - Christianity still isn't a religion. It's a way of life...or so they say.

Christianity as we know it now is just a compilation of rituals aimed at giving the performers a feel-good notion of themselves.

Twisted, selfish interpretations of its holy books, a greed-fueled fixation on money and status , discrimination and institutional hypocrisy which should turn the stomach of any rational person.

Christianity isn't what it should be on the whole. Spirituality is continually being sacrificed for conformity.

Still, I'd stick with Christianity 'cause I am allowed to criticize it. The freedom to do so means it ( the institution) is open to change, forward-thinking change - a stack contrast to other major religions of the world.

I suppose the malleability of its rules and doctrines is reason enough to stick with it...and get everyone else on the train. smiley

Dimwitted offspring of a newt, your economy thrives virtually on the inputs of Nigerian entrepreneurs.

You slaving orangutans still owe Nigeria more than $80 million for supplying petroleum to feed your energy needs.

Wizkid who's just one of Nigeria's countless A-list artistes signed more than three-quarters the number of trending Ghanaian artistes. They all call him "Big bro" even though he's younger than them all.

Every slimy urchin Ghana calls her celebrity has to come pay homage in Lagos and/or Port Harcourt to be recognized from Majid Michel to Yvonne Nelson to Sarkodie to Efya to the VIPs. They eat and drink Nigeria !

PoliticsRe: Biafra: Igbos Are Their Own Worst Enemies – Senator Girei by TheSonOfMark(m): 4:58pm On Sep 24, 2017
wingmanII:
Rubbish! So because Igbos want the president then they should present a character like Rochas? To hell with your presidency. Shove it up your a... Rse.
Featherbrained scoundrel, if you had half the intelligence of a jellyfish, you'd have comprehended that Okorocha's emergence was the most recent, notable one on a formidable platform (the APC).

Mention was made of other notable Igbos like Peter Obi , Ngige and the likes who are rumoured to be jostling for the GCFR position in 2019. You have a grouse with all of them too, orangutan?

Just like your sobriquet suggests, you'd always be the wingman in the scheme of things until you learn to love yourselves as against the selfish disunity you are known for.

Dimwitted, myopic irrational Cururu toad!
PoliticsRe: Biafra: Igbos Are Their Own Worst Enemies – Senator Girei by TheSonOfMark(m):
Afam4eva:
What the Mallam is saying in essence that Igos refused to vote for ANPP that had never won a presidential election before. Tomorrow someone will wake up on the wrong side of the bed and tell us how they presented an Igbo VP in KOWA party but were rejected by Igbos. You wonder why all the attempt to make an Igbo man president is never in the ruling party. I see the lord of host punishing so many people before the year runs out.
You do realize the Igbos had a shot at the presidency during the November 2014 APC Presidential primaries in the person of Rochas Okorocha but even before the aforementioned primaries, Okorocha's fiercest opposition and critics were the Igbos themselves . The irony of it.

The APC was the most formidable rival to the then ruling party, the PDP.

You know what makes it worse? Even if the Igbos are presented the presidency on a platter of gold on either platforms of the two major political parties, they'd still scuffle and fight amongst themselves and never agree on a consensus candidate from Okorocha to Orji Kalu to Peter Obi to Ngige.

That, mister, is what is holding the Igbos back.

Maybe it was; then again, maybe it wasn't.

Stage fright or not, in front of rolling cameras or behind drawn curtains, the fact remains, the bulk of projected female models and beauty queens are bimbos. This brings us back to the flawed selection processes I mentioned in my prequel post.

Campusity:
God can't give them everything nah. It's either beauty or brains, never the two.... Na only them waka come?
The reality of it contradicts your sweeping generalization.

There are a gazillion pretty-yet-brainy girls; in this case, thousands of females of Akwa Ibom extraction who are eyecandies yet would make Dora Akunyili proud if she were alive.


I consider this an insult of some sort. The Akwa Ibom girls I interact with aren't all bimbos as being portrayed by that sham of a beauty contest. The ones I know are smart; a significant number of them are.

I think - scratch that - the selection process is flawed. It goes without saying that happy-go-lucky bimbos are easier to manipulate, to control. Hence why the organizers tend to favour picking dumb girls. The dumber, the easier, I suppose.

There are a gazillion examples. The most recent, popular ones being the infamous quips by the female Big Brother Nigeria participants.

Blame the organizers for the disgraceful displays. There are always screening processes to sieve out these seeming unintelligent girls but for some obvious selfish reason, they nearly always scale over the preliminary hurdles.

Respect? HungerBad? TheSonOfMark? Our e-paths rarely ever cross so what's with playing the 'I-Respect-You' card as a get-away outlet? Your subtle attempt at emotional blackmail is as ineffective as water corroding gold. smiley



I am not Anti-Igbo. And neither do i advocate for the use of force. I am just Anti- IPOB.
I have been engaged with countless Igbo-ascribing monikers on tribal spats when provoked but would I hail a not-so-veiled massacre targeted at them? Hell would have to freeze over first.

Of course, you're not anti-Igbo - you are anti-justice and pro-marginalization.


There are plenty of blames to go round on all sides.

But this would not have been started,if IPOB have not fired the first salvo of missiles(violence). Nigeria is still a countryy of laws?and Kanu with his miserable followers are subject to the laws of the land.
Hogwash! The military invasion of a relatively peaceful region is an act of biased aggression itself.[/quote]

This one will just be hiding in his comfort in America to be spewing rubbish. He is one of the people that is fooling Kanu and his IPOB terrorists into believing that they are untouchable and infallible, yet, you will never see him actively participate in IPOB activities.

The Military Operations in the SouthSouth is a Welcome development. Only troublemakers, terrorists and enemies of the State that will have problem with it. Such individual and group must be dealt with with the full weight of the military...
Suffering from accelerated amnesia or just playing the ostrich? Whichever it is, here's me shooting darts of hard facts in-between your eyebrows.

You do realize sycophantic, a-naira-for-my-thoughts folks like you are why the people of Odi (an Ijaw community of which you share tribal ties with) are yet to get justice eighteen years after they were massacred by the Nigerian government.

You do realize during Peter Odili's tenure as Governor of Rivers State, Rivers indigenes were killed mindlessly in repeated sprays of gunfire yet we are still glossing over it like some unimportant page of a boring book.

Same is happening in the South East and being proposed in the other Southern regions.

Laugh, brother; laugh at the screams of anguish by the persecuted until you, me and other Southerners get razed by the pyroclastic haze you fueled with your support.

A sensible Governor in a sensible state. Ebonyi State is sensible,end of discussion.
Maybe he is, maybe he's not.

Still, it doesn't justify the fact that the military invasion of the South East to counter a supposed uprising which has been hitherto comparatively peaceful and within the ambits of international law was needless and a disarrangement of national priorities considering the fact that the underlying triggers of such uprisings haven't been tackled.

I am Ibibio; I vehemently refuse the idea of my people being lumped in a non-defined map of Biafra but the humanity in me still thrives.

There are countless Igbos who refuse the idea of Biafra but you hunt them all with the majority of us - the other tribes - cheering them on as they are killed in the South and North.
