I am not against against any centenary village, but it must be spread accross the entire country and not only abuja. Each geo-political zone must be fairly represented in this scheme.


Pius Anyim championing this course has shown that Igbos has no leaders with their interest at heart, they are mere political jobbers. Hw can a whopping $21b be spent on a particular place while the entire country is suffering? Y cant the centenary village be built in osogbo, aba, makurdi, sokoto, oron etc.


This project, if go unchallenged, is a complete day-light rip-off of the wealth of the pple of the niger delta whose land is being daily destroyed in order to develop abuja. If the pple of naija delta didnt fight against polution and degredation in their land and approve this 'northern interest' project, i may assume the gods meant naija delta pple to be perpetual slaves.

Sec5: Are you sure he is fully recovered?
I mean mentally

No, i am not sure that Tinubu has fully recovered.

[quote author=Dive-Bomber]true2god u're a f00l jst like abu. D powers dat supported d north during d Biafran war will nt support dem again. boko haram has given d north a vry bad name. Was it nt France dat bombed out northern mali? D south did nt need to b armed to d teeth. Mumu.[/quote]Hw do u knw that the power that supported the north will no longer support dem? The western europe and the US do not care about u as long as their economic interest is concerned (or oil issue is concerned).

Besides, they believed that their economic interest is secured if an hausa\fulani man is in charge in a united Nigeria cos they can be easily manipulated and used (even if Nigeria economy will be completely destroyed to achieve that aim).

U need learn more about politics in modern economy. This will help solve the problem of ur ignorance in this field.

[quote author=Dive-Bomber]Shut up abu, u cannot threaten us wit war. If h want violence will give u surplus violence. D powers dat supported u during d Biafran war will nt support u dis time.[/quote]Guy take it or leave it, Abu is right. The present Nigeria structure was created after the civil war. That is to say the North maximized the opportunity gained after the war to corner all the resources in the south for the benefit of the north. If there was no civil war the present structure wouldn't hav been in place. Its like begging an armed- robber to leave ur property while the arm-robber is armed to the teeth.

No amount of conference can address this imbalance. The only solution is for the south east\south south south to arm themsleves to the teeth, then they will be in a good position to negotiate. You do not negotiate with someone with arm (while u r armless) and expect a fair deal. It does not work in this world.

I am an Igbo guy for your information.

passion007: I completely agree.
Think about if Afenifere were to make an official statement that they endorse Ohaneze's submission. It's a little thing, but it does show the northerners that Nigeria might no longer be business as usual.
That will lead the ACF to actually think, and perhaps come to agree with others, or bring up a better suggestion.

I think Kogi and kwara state, in North central Nigeria, having a vry large Yoruba presence is surely a serios head-ache for an average yoruba political planner. Thats y it will be difficult for the Yorubas not to reach, even a small compromise with the Hausa-fulani. I understand the difficulty here.

[quote author=$£yi]I'm neither for or against what is coming from the ACF. Buy if we must have equal representatives from the major ethnic group, same must be applicable for the minority tribes i.e. every tribe having same numbers of representatives. The Edos, Ijaws, Yorubas, Kanuris, Hausas, Uhrobos, Igbos, Ilajes, Itsekiris, Ikweres, Ekuns, Igalas, Ibibio etc must all have same amount of representatives.

If the yorubas or the Igbos do not want the Hausas to cheat them in numbers of representatives, they should also not cheat the minorities in numbers of representatives.[/quote]I agree with u but i dnt thing the Igbos or the Yorubas are against the ethnic groups you mentioned having equal representation. I think each major ethnic group such as the Hausas, Igbos, Yorubas, Nupes, Idomas, Ijaws, efik\ibibio\anang, edos, Fulanis, Kanuris etc should be equally represented. I believe this is the position of Ohaneze Ndigbo.

Besides, nothings stops the six regions from operating as a confedrate components with a weak centre as practiced in the UK and the old USSR. Nigeria must be run such that no ethnic nationality will feel cheated as it is today.

Lemme make photocopy 1st, will be right back.

This so-called lecturers are too greedy. Why ask for 3tr naira in a developing country like naija? Hw much do dey want to be allocated to other sectors?

They are already making money throught sales of diploma forms, pre-lim forms, post utme forms, school fees and govt allocations. An average Nigerian lecturer cannot boast of a single research to his credit despite all the billions allocated to the educational sector.

There salaries should be stopped until dey go back to classes. Most of these lecturers go to school on fed govt scholarship and now they are playing part in destroying the future of Nigeri youths while their childres school in the UK and US.

Let also condemn the masacre of students sleeping in their domitary today in Yobe state by the Islamist Boko haram. Charity begins at home.

franchizy: In as much as I do not support the killing, I have said it over and over that the declaration of state of emergency or military option is not the panacea to solving the Boko Haram menace.
I have made my stand clear to the FG to liase wit the Northern Elders forum, grant the Boko Haram Amnesty, release all detained members of Boko Haram.
There is need to also involve the Christian Association of Nigeria because 60% of Boko Haram members are chriatians from the South East, South South and South West.
We must realize that Islam is a religion of peace, muslims don't shed blood, kill or involve in unlawful act. The killings in the North is just a game plan to tarnish the norths image.

The pple dat a killing, bombing and looting in Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Sudan etc are also from christians the South east, south south and south east in order to tarnish the image of Islam.

(Whats the) Mata with Chelsea? Mou stop fight with Mata, pls settle Mata with him.

I believe maclatunji and co will prefer settling down, with their families, in the US and EUROPE instead of Saudi arabia, pakistan, kuwait, oman, Egypt, Moroco etc yet they will come here and criticise the west.

The highest pple migrating to Europe and austrialia are pple frm muslim countries, y because they enjoy the freedom and opportunities those countries have to offer. Let all this Islamic hypocricy stop jare.

automaticcars: The girl na Ibo girl married to a Yoruba man. Ibo girls like Yoruba thing no be small o!

Yes, Yoruba guys have seem to start hating the infidelity in their ladies. Besides, they want mix Igbo-yoruba blood for strong and sharp kids. Yoruba Rich-men are getting wiser in dis area.

[quote author=trix!]All those who are quoting me and calling me names, Let me correct an impression.

First off, I am a "contract Staff" in another organisation, so to a large extent I have seen the issues raised by the OP first hand.

You must learn to pick you battles properly. You have NO standing with access bank, You cannot even sue them, since they did not employ you. Access bank hired your employer to render a service to them, you just happen to be performing this service in their facility. You should take up this case with you employer. Most Nigerian worker have NEVER read the workmen's compensation act and mostly deal on sentiments and emotions.[/quote]U r not a contract staff my guy. Stop fooling ursef, perhaps u r here to clean up the bank's bad image.

[quote author=trix!]
While I empathize with you, I must also point out that you are NOT a staff of Access bank. Access bank has outsourced security guards and transaction officers to other firms, and they pay lump sums to these other firms.
Its your parent company that is ment to grant you all these benefits. When you are due for leave, your parent company is supposed to send a replacement for you to access bank.
What's on your letter of employment? Does it carry Access bank letterhead? Was it signed by HR of Access bank?
[/quote]If u r a 'contract staff' u will understand the guy's feelings.

TroGunn: The Archangel is an angel (God's spirit messenger), but not an ordinary one - Archangel is far superior. He leads or commands other angels.

"For to which of the angels did God ever say.." does not show the Christ is not the Archangel, just as Christ saying "Look at the fig tree and all the trees..." at Luke 21:29 does not mean the fig tree is not a tree. Heb 1v5 is all about highlighting Christ's superiority to angels in general.

Christ himself remains God's most superior and foremost messenger, and nothing insulting in that.

If the Bible deems it ok to call Jesus a messenger (angel) in Malachi 3:1, who are we puny humans to say otherwise?

Malachi 3:1 - "Behold I send my angel, and he shall prepare the way before my face. And presently the Lord, whom you seek, and the angel of the testament, whom you desire, shall come to his temple . Behold he cometh, saith the Lord of hosts". - Catholic's Douay-Rheims Bible, http://drbo.org/chapter/44003.htm

Ok, answer this question possed by Paul in Hebrews without having to jextapose incoherent verses to back up ur falsehood.


Which of the angels has God ever said 'sit at my right hand till i make ur enemy ur foot-stool'? I need u look at the keyword there 'ever'. Simple comprehension makes an elementary school pupil understands that no any angel has God ever asked to sit at his right hand, None (even Michael). Thank God u admited that an arch angel is an angel. A headboy is still a student as well. Or are u saying u knw better than the writer of Hebrew?


This lie is obviosly taught by the watchtower and not a bible teaching. The verse u quoted in malachi does not in anyway collerate with the book of hebrew. The 'angel' in malachi is rendered by many bible translators as messenger in many translation. Taking a lot at that verse John the baptist (the angel that prepares the way of the lord according to ur quote above) is not an angel, yet the verse rendered it as angel.


The bible never conflicted itself on this issue, it is only u guys that r always swalowing wat watchtower gives as 'bible teachings' without course to do personal/independent study.

Iroko tree, fig tree, mango tree etc are all trees no matter how special u see any of dem. I knw u will not agree with me unless the light becomes brighter and a new teaching tell u dat angel michael is not Jesus christ.

TroGunn: Bottom line, Christ is God's foremost messenger. He's no mere angel, but the Archangel, meaning Commander of angels or Chief of Angels. He is above all other beings (angels and men), except God himself.

Pre- and post-human life, Christ exist(ed) as a spirit messenger of God, at the forefront of carrying out God's commands. We should all follow his sterling example of zeal, humility, obedience and loyalty to God.

Is arch-angel an angel or not? Is arch-bishop a bishop or not? Is chief accountant an accountant or not? Arch-angel michael is still an angel.

The book of Hebrews asked: wnich of the ANGEL (angel michael inclusive) did God ever say 'sit at my right hand till i make ur enemy your foot-stool? The ansa is none.

So anyone calling Angel Michael Jesus is teaching/believing error, unless the person does not understand elementary comprehension or intentionally deceptive.

dbride: ...but do you have blood flowing in you? Do you still believe you are human and feel like one? You seem to have a heart of stone, no human feelings whatsoever! Whoever fights criminals successfully from Nairaland Forum! Now, maclatunji, you can understand why I told you that some comments/thoughts are best left inside of you!!!!! The above comment reveals your true self..... INSENSITIVE....it is not boldness, it is not fear-----remember me now? Do I still remind you of someone?

I have said it before, a moderate muslim has the tendency of going radical at any moment of which maclatunji is one of them.


In a matter that has to do with religion, an average/educated muslim losses all forms of rationality.

Joagbaje: GOD DIDN'T SUBJECT THE WORLD TO ANGELS
Hebrews 2:5
For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.

ALL THINGS INCLUDING MICHEAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHRIST
Hebrews 2:8
Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.

MICHEAL WORSHIP JESUS
Hebrews 1:6
And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.


WORLD WAS CREATED BY JESUS

Ephesians 3:9
. . . . the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

Colossians 1:16
Christ himself is the Creator who made everything in heaven and earth, the things we can see and the things we can't; the spirit world with its kings and kingdoms, its rulers and authorities; all were made by Christ for his own use and glory.

GOD NEVER CALLED ANGELS HIS SON
Hebrews 1:5-7
For God never said to any angel, "You are my Son, and today I have given you the honor that goes with that name." But God said it about Jesus.

MICHEAL COULDN'T REBUKE SATAN DIRECTLY
Jude 1:9
Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

JESUS REBUKED SATAN
Matthew 4:10
"Get out of here, Satan," Jesus told him. "The Scriptures say, Worship only the Lord God. Obey only him. '"


MICHEAL HAS EQUALS, HE IS NOT THE ONLY ARCHANGEL , JESUS HAS NO EQUALS

Daniel 10:13
. . . but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me. . .

Jo, this is short and simple for anybody to understand.

tintingz: Like have said mention the mosque built in vatican city, not talking of italy cuz they are not strictly practicing the laws in the bible. Saudi arabia is a strictly sharia law country.

Tampering with our belief because we are now in the jet age is a NO, religion is said to be a believe/faith from God and sacred to humans so why would people change what God has revealed to them...Islam never condemn technology, science and education the Prophet(sa) said we should seek for knowledge even if we are to travel round the world to get it.

Lolz muslims are fast becoming everybody enemy? For how many centuries we have been hearing this, FYI there many people converting to Islam in the world topping the guiness book of records.

U always spew rubish to defend ur Intolerant religion at all cost. The entire vatican city is smaller than Lagos Island and virtually all the square is covered by st peters bassilica and adjoining office and the city was part of Italy as at 1920. Saudi is as big as Nigeria and ordianry medina is bigger than the entire Lagos. So there is no even a plot where a church or synagogue can be bulit in saudi?


Even the eduacate muslims are irrational when it comes to defending their religion. For your information India has so many sacred religios sites and mosques are found within their perimeter yet u can hardly hear that a mosque is bombed in India. Yet u guys r bombin their religios sites into extintion in order to establish Islamis supremacy.


Have u wondered y the whole world view Islam as radical and dangerous? If u r not a radical then u r not a true muslim.

tintingz: Please ask them again o

Muslims are 'nice and accomodatin' where they are in the minority without any significant numeric advantage, but r like wolves that easily hunt weaker animals where they r the majority or at per with the local population.

This is a knwn fact globally, and this is y any responsible govt take measures to curtail and contain Islam, whether extremist or moderate. Cos even the moderate muslims have the tendency of easily joining the radicals with just a single verse of the koran to back up their murderos action.

The saudi govt are even afraid of some element of Islam that might one day usurp the stronghold of the saudi royal family upon common saudi citizens (search y the saudi wahabi muslim wanna do away with the more radical syria and Iranian muslims).

My friend, even muslims are not spared in Islamic terror.

'Islam is the only pure religion, and the religion of peace', so says one of my Nairaland boko-haramic friend.

Muslims will fight buddist (in Burma).
Muslims will fight christians (almost world-wide).
Muslims will fight Jews (in the middle-east).
Muslims will fight Hindus (in India)
Ironically, Muslims will fight fellow Muslims (shia vs sunni) with heavy terrorist bombings.

Indeed, this is a religion of peace. Allahu akbar.
