recently the as an attempt to unite europe, the matter was put into vote, france voted against it, holland voted against it and blair was reluctant to put the matter b4 the british electorate. people were consulted and they showed their mind. imagine if by some force someone somewhere unified europe with a president and one govt. what do u think will happen? chaos.

today u guys are hesitant to accept turkey into EU, the issue is being discussed regularly, but u guys came to Africa, without consultation U created countries that cant work. just look at east Africa; the swahilis were split into three countries kenya, tanzania,uganda. why didn't the masters make a nation of the swahilis? instead u put them into three countries with other tribes to make three multitribal nations. enabling environment for chaos. and they knew what they were doing.

from ur history, there were problems in the past with the scotts and the welsh. so u guys knew the inherent problems in putting incompatible tribes together in one country. yet u did it.look at nigeria today, a far cry from what we could have been.

tribal hatred and distrust led to a civil war, shamful political controversy and instability etc. imagine peopl in this century asking for an ibo president, northern president etc. shame .men

@SIBLI 06
I'm in the U.K for education. and the reason i was allowed to come to Uk is that i'm going to spend over £15,000.00 while in the UK. if not, they wont give me visa. if i wanted to come here for tourism, or holidays ,they wont give me visa, but b/c i want to spend huge amt of money in their economy they give me a visa.

even at that, theywont give me a job after school. then they'll remember i'm from africa. here, they teach us so much about british NHS, after all nthe money we pay, and all the lectures on NHS, they now ask me to go back to my country to look for a job. how will knowledge of NHS get me a job in nigeria?

i do not blame the british for all nigeria problems, i chose my words carefully, i said they can be [b]traced to the british rule and why not. who did lord lugard consult b4 the decision of 1914? who told the british that we'll make it together as a nation. recent history has made it clear that 1914 was a fatal mistake. who made that mistake? the british. every other problem nigeria faces can be traced to 1914. do want some information on this?

u insult me a 2nd time by telling me to grow up. once again i say this, it is better i do not respond to that.

[quote author=SIBLI_06 link=topic=9212.msg262072#msg262072 date=1143710039]I'm sure you can count on one thing, if the people of Nigeria needed the help from the UK they would surely receive it.[/quote]BULLSHIT!!!!!!!ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT.WHO DO U THINK YOU CAN DECIEVE? ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT NIGERIA IS FACING TODAY CAN BE TRACED TO THE BRITISH. FROM THE 1ST DISCOVERERS, TO THE COLONIAL MASTERS, TO THE DISASTER OF 1914, THE IMBALANCE OF 1960 DOWN TILL TODAY. THE BRITISH REMAIN THE GENESIS OF CHAOTIC NIGERIA.

WHERE WAS UR HELP IN THE UMARU DIKKO AFFAIR OF 1984, WHERE WAS UR HELP IN THE ALAMI AFFAIR OF 2005. WHERE IS THE RESPECT YOU GUYS HAVE FOR NIGERIA IN VISA ISSUANCE FOR GENUINE TRAVELLERS, LET ME NOT JUST START TALKING ABOUT THE BRITISH, LET ME CONCENTRATE ON THE NIGERIANS WHO ARE CAUSING OUR PROBLEMS.

U SAY MY STATEMENT STINKS,IT'S BETTER I DON'T RESPOND TO THAT angry

everyone should be proud of his tribe. and every tribe has one aspect or the other where they excel. so there is no problem with onanugaola being proud of hie heritage, but then the wahala is when one establishes injustice based on tribe and i agree with onanugaola(ur name hard to spell broda) that injustice to one is injustice to all. that is a fact
Politics › Re: Why Is MASSOB Disrupting The Census? by toshmann(m): 1:13am On Mar 30, 2006
massob may be a wrong approach, but the biafran spirit is in the heart of most ibos and "no amount of physical force can quench the invincible spirit of a nation"(nelson mandela,1963?). doctors dont give paracetamol when patients come with fever and headache. they try to find out what is causing the headache/fever, e.g malaria, and treat the malaria. if they stop the fever/headache with paracetamol, it will come again b/c the underlying malaria is still there.


so the federal govt should not just fight massob. they should fight the factors beneath the movt.i.e the serial injustice and imbalance in the federation against the ibos since 1966. when this is done,i tell u the ibos will now feel accepted in the nation and will feel like nigerians. for now they feel like captives.

we'll talk more on these later

america has surely put the liberian leader in their pocket. when the fire was on, they let nigeria do the dirty work,now there is relative peace and they want to take the glory of stopping the war in liberia and make nigeria look bad(for the delay in handing taylor over). the liberians know who the real heroes in their history are;the unknown nigerian soldiers who fought and died in their civil war.
now that US has come in the lead for post war trials, they will surely find ways of containing the african leaders and we've started seeing the signs already.

ABUJA, Nigeria - Former Liberian President Charles Taylor, who vanished in Nigeria after authorities reluctantly agreed to transfer him to a war crimes tribunal, was arrested trying to cross the border into Cameroon, Nigerian police said Wednesday. He then was flown back to Liberia. Taylor was captured Tuesday night by security forces in the far northeastern border town of Gamboru, in Borno State, nearly 600 miles from the villa in southern Calabar from which he reportedly disappeared Monday night, Information Minister Frank Nweke said in a statement.
let'shope this is true,all these (mis)information ministers we have these days. anyway, it'll be a shame if he is not caught and sent for trial.

ono:
Anyway, I heard also, that it's because the heat is on OBJ to release Taylor or loose Third Term, that's why he buckled under pressure to ''release'' Charlie Boy.
u see why i hate these americans, they are actually after charles taylor and not really interested in democratic nigeria. i hate it when people say bush should intervene and stop obasanjo from doing 3rd term. i hate the 3rd term but i don't want US intervention in our politics b/c they will end up achieving one secret aim or the other of theirs and leave the country.
