GeneralPula:
Good leadership isn’t by how old..

Take a look at Makinde.
Take a look at Yaya bello..
What of dimeji Bankole?
Even Macron of France isn’t exclusive - he’s also useless nah why e dey chop slap..

If you’re not a good leader, you’re just not a good leader, either you’re 90 or 45..

Nigeria is one country that doesn’t appreciate a president that does things on credit, rather it has to my region is involved type of stuffs. So even if a sane mind becomes a president today, he’ll still have to bend to the style..

Nigeria needs somebody that is intelligent, that can think and that’s cruel - yes he must be cruel cuz he must be ready to chop many people eye to make good governance happen..
Certainly!

And we are also reminded of very old but vibrant leaders like Abraham Lincoln, FD Roosevelt, and Sir Winston Churchill.
Politics › Re: What Makes Tiny Tigray So Powerful They Have Almost Captured Entire Ethiopia by Throwback: 8:46am On Aug 06, 2021
Tigray has held political power in Ethiopia for many decades, and have used that opportunity to consolidate their gains from the greater Ethiopia.

Now out of power for just a few years, they are no longer content with receiving orders from the rest of Ethiopia who themselves have been receiving orders from a minority Tigray for many decades.

In his current sorry state, he will humbly remember all the atrocities and outlandish promises and threats he made while he was a menace to society and a fugitive from the law.

I think it is time for Sen Ekweremadu to go visit the supreme leader, with a dish of Ofe Nsala, and a copy of the human rights charter that both Ekweremadu and Kanu are entitled to, but Kanu did not hesitate to unleash terror on Ekweremadu.

Meanwhile, Kanu's spectators in Afara Ibeku are still waiting for the head of Buhari that a certain clown promised them.
Politics › Re: You Cannot Insist On Due Process For Igboho, Kanu & Deny It To Abba Kyari - FFK by Throwback:
While I never expected to come across an honest policeman, some are actually upset with Abba Kyari for the daring exploits he was able to achieve while corruptly discharging his duties.

Some are even more offended that someone who is not of their own tribe, could be so well distinguished in his police career.

As for USA asking for one Nigerian or the other, has USA itself ever regarded any criminal allegation against their own citizen, and released such citizen to another country for prosecution?

USA should provide Nigeria the evidence they have against Abba Kyari, and then his employers and the Nigerian prosecution should do the needful within Nigeria.

Why would Nigeria or any country ever release a very significant security personnel to another country, who will then try in their own court and extract critical security information to strike a plea bargain?
Politics › Re: Anambra Election: APGA Begs Bianca, Invokes Ojukwu’s Spirit by Throwback: 10:51am On Aug 02, 2021
AdaNri1:
It is not about mindset, it’s about principle. Why is it that a married woman will take from her husband to give her family? To most women the husband’s family is second to hers. This is the reasoning behind my perspective, it’s not personal.
So you as an Igbowoman actually despise that the courts has liberated Igbo women from the shackles of the discrimination in inheritance that Igbos practice?

You actually support that women should not get anything substantial from their husbands/fathers, so they don't take it away from the male line of ownership?

AdaNri1:
I’m all for unity in APGA but any political office Bianca is contesting for should be from her state of origin. I’m from Nri but I cannot go to Idemmili and contest a political office just because of my husband
Grace Folashade Bent contested and won the 2007 Senate seat from Adamawa state where her husband originates from, despite that she is actually from Osun state.

Remember your mindset, next time you hear news of an Igboman or Igbowoman who has been elected to some significant political office in a foreign country.

Charity begins at home.

Same Saraki who hid overnight in the car park of the National Assembly, just so he could spring a surprise on his own party to become Senate President?

Even as a staff of his father's bank, Société Generale Bank, he was already involved in a fraud case investigated by the Nigeria police in the early 1990s.

Continue begging for human rights.

Even the Igbo man whose house was burnt down by Kanu's terror squad also had human rights, and had never at any point requested that Kanu should be his supreme leader.

He was never celebrated for exhibiting saintly attributes, but for showing effectiveness and courage in a profession populated by cowards and unintelligent minds.

But to think he was not getting some Roger in typical Nigerian Police manner, Negro please!

I have no sympathy for the foul mouthed terrorist who does not tolerate any dissent from even people who do not acknowledge him as their self-imposed leader.

Let Kanu be given his own human rights as Sen Ekweremadu received human rights from Kanu's terror squad in Germany.

I am waiting for the day he will return to Afara Ibeku with Buhari's head as promised.

Little wonder the UK have distanced themselves from their trouble-seeking parasitic fake citizen.

I like such effective reactions from people who have been taken for a ride for too long.

Why is it that the most important of roads are the ones allowed to decay?

Now that the youths have blocked the road, and no access to Onne Port by all of the industries and oil firms within Port Harcourt, let the federal government come to the reality of how important the road is.

Newton85:
It was named because it's located on the so-called "Bight of Benin". It wasn't named after the Benin empire, end of. But then, this is social media where people hold on tenaciously to the erroneous information they disseminate.
I know it was named after the Bight, which itself was named after the kingdom that once thrived and traded along that coast.

Conclusion is that the name Benin Republic owes its name to the Benin Kingdom.

Newton85:
"Dahomey borrowed the Benin name from the defunct Benin Empire." This is hardly accurate. Dahomey had to be changed since "Dahomey" was a Kingdom of the Fon people (just one of the ethnic groups in the country) and it wouldn't be proper to collectively call all the ethnic groups in the country Dahomeans. So, the solution was to choose a neutral name that would give other ethnic groups a sense of belonging, and they settled for "Republique du Benin" since it was located on the "Bight of Benin". So, no, it's erroneous to say "Dahomey borrowed the Benin name from the defunct Benin empire' without telling the whole story.
And the Bight of Benin is named after which Benin?

So whatever route you take, you will still arrive at the fact that Republic of Benin is a borrow of the name Benin from the defunct empire that is in present day Nigeria.

Dahomey was named after Bight of Benin in the Gulf of Guinea, It has nothing to do with Benin as kindom. The bight of Biafra is in the eastern part of Gulf of Guinea.

This has nothing to do with Benin kingdom as you displayed fake map. It's very nonsensical to now say the whole West Africa belongs to Guinea because it's entire water is referred to as Gulf of Guinea.

You must be one of the revisionists.
So the Bight of Benin is in reference to Benin that is in Japan or where?

So which other Benin was the Bight of Benin named after?

Or the Gulf of Guinea is in reference to the Papau New Guinea in Polynesia and not the Guinea that is right by the West African Gulf?
Politics › Re: The 2nd Niger Bridge Is Now A Reality-photos by Throwback: 1:10pm On Jul 28, 2021
Rugaria:
Those ancient bridges will be torn down and something stunningly modern will be erected in that place. Fashola neglected the south east for two tenures as a minister of works and wants to confuse his generation with the old worn out bridge built totally with Igbo oil money.
No rooms for fast rail tracks. A busy road that should be have more lanes. Nothing seriously striking about the design. Just a project to use for political argeuments: "I built the second Niger bridge for una"...
Very soon your type will claim it is Igbo Oil money that developed NigerDelta or that built Abuja.

What is the meagre contribution of Abia and Imo state oil compared to the total oil production in Nigeria?

Or is it the futuristic gas exploitation that is to come in Imo state that is making you backdate its impact on past and current infrastructural development by the federal government?
Politics › Re: "Igbos Don't Have Any Connection With Biafra, Ijaws Own It" - Asari Dokubo by Throwback: 12:40pm On Jul 28, 2021
Well it is OK to borrow a name from a neighbouring tribe.

Gold Coast borrowed the Ghana name from the defunct Ghana empire in West Africa that was not anywhere near the territorial geography of modern Ghana.

Dahomey borrowed the Benin name from the defunct Benin empire in West Africa that is currently within Nigeria. So Dahomey became Benin Republic.

So I see nothing wrong that an Ijaw will provide the Igbos the name to call their Igboland, from the now defunct coastal description called Bight of Biafra.

Ijaws are over 3 million in Bayelsa, Over 2 million In Delta, over 2 million in Rivers, over 1 million in Ondo, over 1 million in Edo, over 1 million in Lagos, and more
Is there any Ijaw village in Lagos?

I know of Ijaws in Ondo with their own land/villages, but claiming there are Ijaws who are ethnic to Lagos is like claiming there are Tivs who are ethnic to Lagos

Look at typical Kanu people begging for human rights, yet they do not have any regards for human rights or contrary opinion.

Terrorists want to benefit from human rights?

I reckon this is the same way Kanu will rot in jail and never see the light of day.

Who would give a lunatic 5 SouthEast states? Is he elected by anyone to represent Igbo interest?

Or you think any national government would invite a nonentity to have such deliberations on behalf of people who already have democratic and constitutional representation?

Is the Catalonian demand for independence from Spain being championed by a clown or the democratic leadership of that region within Spain?

Is the everlasting Scottish demand for independence being championed by a comedy troupe or the political leaders of that region within the Greater Britain?

Don't entertain the delusions of a clown.

You have now adopted IPOB strategy to checkmate their nefarious activities.

They are very quick to appeal to anyone be it UN, EU or FIFA or WAEC, in an attempt to police the reactions of those who are on the receiving end of their bile and terror, while doing much worse themselves knowing they will get away with it as others do not have a standing mob of zombies under oath to a supreme leader to execute propaganda.

What was d question he was asked before he said that evidence against kanu should be brought to d court?
Sowore was interviewed earlier on why he was at the court. He said wanted to make sure no trial was held today, as Nnamdi did not commit any crime. However, OyigboUpdates overheard the conversation and challenged Sowore, and he took to his heels, blabbing "bring the evidence to the court" Is that not the reason he is being brought to court today?

He is brainless based on his own intent to physically stop a court trial and by passing judgment of innocence on Kanu, but when challenged on the recorded crimes of the fugitive, he said the accusations should be proven in court.

The same court whose trial he wants to interfere with.

Is that not a display of brainlessness?
