what are you talking about sef? hear yourself! All these places you mentioned claiming it is water logged, have you ever check their drainage systems? Their drainage is blocked by dirts and debris. Is it the government that will come to clear the drainage of your house, offices and others for you? You block the drainage, you FAIL to clear your drainage of dirts and debris, you get flooded. mind you, there is sanitation exercise every thursday and last saturdays of the month oo. you face the music yourself there is no bad road in virtually all ikeja axis as you mentioned. Ipaja Ayobo road belongs to Federal Government not State Government! abeg get that into your skull.
hehehehe.... you want to tell me stories about Eastern region?

i never said they are water logged, i said that the roads are terrible, there is big difference between water logged / blocked drains and a bad road

APC has failed lagos its as simple as that, what they do is selective infrastructure developement...

osinbajo oor whatever he is called is absolute zero in yoruba politics . Noone knows the guy. I keep telling ppl that the noise tinubu and apc makes all about been the representatives of yoruba ppl is FALSE. But they needed to do this so has to have an upper hand within apc politics . By the time they have only 2 remaining states in the south west,politicians from other regions will realize that tinubu and co have been taking them for a ride all along.

This is superb submission . I think ekiti man is the only reasonable man but his brothers in west think he is crazy but i see him as smart


He is not having folow follow mentality

THIS IS VERY ENCOURAGING..MY BROTHER YOU MADE MY DAY, I AM BEGINNING TO THINK THAT EVERY YORUBA CAOUGHT THE FLU BUT NOW I KNOW THAT WE STILL HAVE EXCEPTIONS AND SANE MINDS. I AM HAPPY THAT NOT EVERY BODY HAS THAT HERD- FLOCK MENTALITY.


THIS IS NOT ABOUT TRIBE BUT ABOUT NATION..... SO WE HAVE TO LOOOK BEFORE WE LEAP



HAVE A GREAT DAY

Kola4uniadgog:
Bro, dat flu did not catch everybody. There are still some sane yoruba youths who can distinguish between a mere chant word-change and true change. Tinubu is not the leader of the south west and this election will settle it once and for all.

And most times I laff at how they plan to tackle Nigeria's problem. Their solutions are overly simplistic. To them, developing Nigeria is as simple as A, B,C. They are just tilting towards populist sentiments. They are telling the people what they want to hear. There Is nothing they have said that is different from what is being done now.
On power, they will build modular power plants in every community.
On agric, they will distribute fertilizer and seeds.
On crude oil, they will fix the price

How does this represent change and a radical departure from the norm.
Not everybody will be deceived.if they represented true change, trust me...I will be on the other side.

We don't need their 5k, we no be bam biala wey go dey beg for money.

bidex:
I still don't get your point.
With all the good works done in Yoruba land, you call that manipulation? of all the 36 states, which region has enjoy dividends of democracy? which states in Nigeria have better record of development?
Yorubas are not fool. We have seen what ACN now Rebirth to APC has done in Yoruba land. travel around to see for yourself. what has PDP led states done in Yoruba land? Ogun State is an obvious example.
Please next time you wanna talk. gather the truth not deceits.

I think that is where you get it wrong, I travel and I stay in lagos , when I consider how much lagos gets and the kind of work that is done, I weep. the work in lagos is not commensurate with the IGR, right from lekki to badore, you will see bad roads and i can give instance, have you been to opebi when it rais then go to Toyin street ikpodo axis you will cry all in ikeja , i dont want to talk about the streets at ikeja inside

Then forget ipaja - ayobo roda, those roads have been there for years, constructed some and left many, what of ikotun cele road...that is the worst in this country yet we have a government. Yes i will want you to travel to places like uyo, calabar, owerri, Enugu, Awka, Onitisha and see what is called urban renewal.

I have not seen such in many APC western state, atleast i was in ife and oshogbo last week. We have to call a spade a spade brother


Dont jeopardise the future of your youths on primordial tribal sentiments...and i know you want APC because of the crook Tinubuh and his stooge Osibanjoh BUT THINK AGAIN

Yoruba is in this position because of Osibanjo and tinubu, I ask why should a whole ethnic group allow one man with a questionable character chart their course for them, does it mean that we lack decency in the land


If it is tribal i think yoruba is supporting Osibanjo and Buhari because of Tinubu, it hurts but it is a fact, mind you Yoruba never voted goodluck in mass, they are then into AD party madness then so we have record and we dont forget easily!

angelsing:
Did u ask the same Question when many yoruba voted for him back then?...Ask ur self what changed...Its the fault of the President that he made us choose an Old man over him...If he had done credibly well, most yoruba would have voted for him again...To try and call yoruba names because we choose the growth of this country over tribal sentiment is the height of ignorance

xtic2yz:
now i know y ur mouth smells, u neva brush dat p?d?pooed mouth of urs. blindfolded fowl

Is that all you got ?

onatisi:
bros forget apc noise makers on nairaland here ,believe me apc is going down in the south west,even as I speak it is 80% certain that apc will drop additional 2 states out of the remaining 4. Tinubu and apc are fighting now for their political survival ,the general concession among yoruba now is that apc should go ,if u think I am lying visit oyo state and feel the pulse of ppl. Even ogun state apc gov will have an herculean task keeping his seat. So don't listen to those duummb apc noise makers on nairaland . If buhari was banking on bloc votes from the south west ,he should better go back to his cows and dialogue with them because believe it or not pdp is winning 4 states in the south west .

Thanks for the wonderful expression

The impression I get here is something else

Thanks bro

What i keep asking myself and you people is how come yorubas allowed tinubu to manipulate them and pocket them


I just keep asking myself how come they are supporting buhari and his tinubu man

I just dont get it how they can support a man that is so old that doesn't know what m government means and what e government means

I am still asking why should they opt for gerontacracy instead of democracy are they demonstrating their monarchy and hausa oligarchy hangover..

I ask finally what will you go for is it a current phone or an anologue phone

To me I see those that support buhari as been daft and retrogressives . A man that should be in hospice

It's a thing of shame



This is not tribal bashing pls but Yoruba why do you want to drag us back

agbotaen:
bloody igbo lier , which ikas did benin kill ? my father lived in benin during the war and he was not killed , and muritala lived in owa during the war and he did not kill owa/ika people , and ikas did not suffer the genocide that many others suffered , so dont bring your stupid igbo propaganda to ika , let me tell you , biafran troops also killed and murdered many people in ika areas too , just like the nigeria troops also killed some people too , but in ika , it was generally peaceful and our people were solidely behind the nigerian troops , and thats why biafra declared the obi of owa wanted dead or alive , abi you no no?
my friend ika cannever be igbo and will never go along with igbos and ika was never part of your ill fated biafra , as ika is a seperate ethnic group

Here comes the father of identity complex hear him make a jest of himself

But use I not we

okunede:
I  will like to state that the people of eka and  agbor have always guarded their culture with fiercely in the face  of all oppositions , we as eka people know where we come from and we are proud of  our origin , we have a long  history of  kingship  and culture that is why many people will not  let  us be , it is not new for a tribe to have two  or more ancestory , e. g .  take itshekiri  , they have both benin and yoruba ancestory , but that does not make them benin or  yoruba , today , they are know as  itshekiris . but the founding  father of their tribe  was the a benin prince called iginua , son of  oba  olua of benin . we as ika people of agbor and  owa  will not wish to be  drawn into stupid arguements with  those who  do  not know  our history and who do not know  our culture and whose  sole arguements rely on  nearness of  language as a  proof  of where a  people come from , if he  is a historian then he  or she will know that  changes  in language can  occur due to  large  migrations  or trade or due to  other  factors .
please can any one tell me what agbor means in igbo  language ? going back  to  history agbor was  called  ogungunagbon  or agbon , which  means earth in benin language and the british  changed  it to agbor in 1906 . ,most eka founders or founders  of agbon were benin princes and people from ishan land in ancient times and  later other groups  of  migrants came from igbo land  , some from yorubaland  e. t. c .  it will interest you to  note that most  of agbor and  ika culture and traditions came  from benin and edo  areas .  we call  GOD- oselobue , we believe  in ehi as  our guardian spirit as the  benin do, we perfom  festivals  like igue -new year  , ogbanigbe , osi-ezi and  ugboze .  we dress like binis and  maintain  same dances like ojerima, okangan and  uje  like binis .  our traditional gods are same  as theirs  like ovia, uhunmwunde, idigun, olokun   e. t. c  .  we believe  our kings  are devine beings  from the  lineage  of olokun and oselobue .
our  chiefthanct titles are  same as benin , iyase, obasogie, obaseki , ihondor , ihama   , ezomor , ologbosere  et. c .
our  towns  are divided into   ebon (umu), idumu  and  ogbe ,
in agbor there are two  languages spoken  ozara and ika , ozara is edoid  while ika  is a mix  of bini and igbo , each  town has  her  history of  founding fathers and they are well kept, there are still some titles that  if you want to take  in some villages today  in agbor you  must go  to  benin , where the original founder came  from to  collect things and receive  blessings of approval .  it  will  interest you to note that  all  ika and  agbor kings are benin princes and the present dein of agbor is same royal blood family with  the  omonoba of  benin .
but  all  these do  not  make us binis , although in the past we bore benin tribal  marks ,but today  we are eka people  , we  are not  binis or igbos , but we know where most  of our ancestors came from , no proper  ika man  will want to be refered to  as  igbo , but  properly as  ika people . we the ika people share both igbo and  bini  cultures that  is why  we still have igbo names like ngozi , okechukwu  and the  likes , but we still have our benin names too  like  irabor , obaigbena , ovia, osagie  etc. this  is  our heritage and we are proud  of it, looking at  my family history  of about 800  years  i  saw all my ancestors were having benin names  from  omigie, agbontaen, ehiabor, imade, osaigbovou, efeizomor, okundaye  , ebie, ogbe, e. t. c , so  one day  i  asked  my father why and  he told  me that our fore-father was the  son  of a prince from benin,and that  our people from our village in idumu-ezomor were children  of  ezomor the great warrior general from benin who assisted  oba esigie of benin to  quell the  ida war . some times it  is good for people to  consult natives  of a  place and ask them of their history , before the  write  on it. anioma is a big  place , i know the  igbo  language plays  a  part in anioma  history  , but  not all aniomas migrated from igboland and their are  about  11 languages spoken there   like ozara, ika, olokumi ( old yoruba), igalla, aboh,  etc . that is the reason why no proper ika man  will join any group  like ohaneze, we  have our own  group called  the ika group  ,while we support anioma ,we also believe that those who  can trace their ancestory to igboland should join the group, but we will like to  say we the agbor and ika people should be  left alone as we are a  seperate people called  ika . i am  happy that this is bearing fruit as on delta radio there is  now news in ika language as a different languge , ikas  have  commenced writing the bible in ika language and  right  now  the gospel of  mark, luke , mathew and john have been published and we  have  books on ika languge right now ,during the colonial times our people resisted the  celebration of igbo day in ikaland, i want to state that the agbor people  even  though  we  have cultural afinities with some  of our neighbours like ogwashi, ubulu-uku  , asaba , i will like to  say we are very  different from them ,. we  are ika people , we are not binis neither are we  igbos . please take note

I'm a proud Igbo man. But occasions like this make me cringe with shame with how my kinsmen have lost common sense in name of primordial sentiments. The terrible seeds we are sowing today will grow someday not far away. So soon, what goes around will come around. The Arthur Ezehs, Iwuanyaneus and other demonic souls will still romance the new powers, but then, most of the lowlier souls here will bear the worst brunts. We didn't learn anything from the unfortunate civil war. We still don't know what we want as a people.

In the developed world, he should be making peace with his God in old people's home while advicing the young on governance issues but in Africa, he is depriving the youth the chance of making tomorrow better for their children while he did virtually nothing to better today for this generation and funny thing is some youths support him. Smh.

We refuse the days of yore
We refuse the days of yaradua
We are refusing buhari and his gang
We are refusing APC mechanization
We are not that stupid

I have been call worst, yet that does not change the truth. Some folks want Nigeria to remain under the burden of Corruption to prove a point. But the masses will vote and effect the needed Change.

Never Again shall we have Incompetence dominate us. The Nigerian Political class must be taught that lesson. No matter the dollar you share, Nigerians want a performer.

Change is Coming. Sai Buhari.

Bizinton:
President Goodluck Jonathan has fired Martin-Luther Agwai as the head of his government’s intervention unit, SURE-P.

Mr. Agwai is a respected former Defence Chief, who led United Nation missions in Sudan, amidst other career runs.

Mr. Agwai was appointed by Mr. Jonathan to head SURE-P, a department created by the government to deploy saved fuel subsidy money for the provision of critical infrastructure and jobs.

In a statement Tuesday, presidential spokesperson, Reuben Abati, named Ishaya Dare Akau as the new head of SURE-P, Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme.

The new SURE-P Chairman hails from Jema’a Local Government Area of Kaduna State and holds Bachelors’ Degrees in the Arts and Law.

Mr. Akau comes to the job with years of experience as a high-level administrator in the nation’s public service. His record of service includes tenures as Chairman of the Kaduna State Universal Education Board and Chairman of the National Assembly Service Commission.

The presidency did not give any reason for Mr. Agwai’s removal, beyond saying it was “in furtherance of his efforts to continuously re-energize and reposition agencies of the Federal Government for optimal service delivery”.

But PREMIUM TIMES understands reliably that Mr. Agwai was fired for flouting a presidential instruction that no government official or member of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, should attend the birthday event of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, last week.

Mr. Jonathan and the former president have been locked in a longstanding row which has seen Mr. Obasanjo repeatedly criticise the president publicly.

The spat climaxed three weeks ago when Mr. Obasanjo quit the party and publicly tore his membership card.
Sources within the presidency told PREMIUM TIMES that all government functionaries were instructed by President Jonathan to boycott Mr. Obasanjo’s birthday event.

Our sources said when informed of the president’s warning, Mr. Agwai, who climbed to the pinnacle of his career under the Obasanjo administration, said he will go ahead and attend the function, more so, in view of the president’s directive.

Our sources said for daring the president, it was clear Mr. Agwai would be fired.

One source said it appears Mr. Agwai was informed ahead of the announcement of his removal Tuesday, as the former defence chief arrived early at the SURE-P office to pack his belongings.

Mr. Agwai himself replaced Christopher Kolade, who was sacked after criticising the president.

But truth be told, @ 70, people forget a lot of things and needs constant remindal and it goes with certain behaviors pattern. It applies to every one, civilian or military. It could be worst with the nature of work you did in your youthful dayz.

That is finishing and diminishing mentality with senility and docility and that is what buhari has

I wonder how people can support such
Take buhari to hospice pls
