[quote author=Duke_Nija]OMG!!
My Mom hates Tinubu More than anyone or anything else.
Except maybe the devil himself. Lol
Funny Political Woman.[/quote]and who is that your mother o - we knw Abibatu Mogaji and we knw Tinubu; so who the rubbish is ur mother and you the son - a void

Reading thru haters posts I can only say Tinubu still nids to do more in bringing some mentally crippled Nigerians out of abject economic and reality dillusion. I must say he is doing his best in this direction but he nid do more - PDP has made bad governance a fad in Nigerians that an average and educated citizen resist a revolve in a positive direction. Hater Tinubu all u care even the biblical Jesus was hated my d people he fought for...its not biblical history its human reality - Good people are easy target for mischief and name calling. Tinubu is not an angel that's why he doesn't reside in heaven - he is human but in the fight for our freedom from the grip of poverty; he is a superhuman

dayokanu: And How is LUTH a Lagos State Fashola or Tinubu problem?

I tire o - that's a developmental deficit on the part of PDP and GEJ.

I just don't know why we can't just allow igbo slice out of Nigeria sef - this biafra is really no big deal as far as am concern cos the country called Nigeria is united as the top by corruption and at the bottom by poverty. I seriously wish biafra becomes a reality I really want to knw the magic wand that is absent in SE enclave atm that will suddenly wake up to action when its still the same o'idiots that join hands with other thieves frm other region that will still be at the helm of affairs - the OUK and co. Unless u tell me biafra is a land without Andy uba and co but Nigeria is...Biafra is not the problem igbos are, Nigeria is not the problem Nigerians are.

toba: u are a big fool. if others are still excused, u definitely cant be. ur stupidity prevented ur brain from realizing that the comparison was simply based on Tinubu's birthday donations and Jonathan's waste of public funds on election.

bringing fashola in shows u're just a low life internet cheer leader. odenson

since its about comparison then I tink its best one compare ur brain with that of a dead man - Ebudola was the name the late sage "Awo" christened himself when u neva do well were busying slinging rants while the old man was busy advancing the progress of SW; another man is on dis legendary rung and here u paid idiots are singing rubbish - comparision; Rochas Okorocha's birthday carnival and public holiday was celebrated with his money abi? You just invented the smiley for "fools"

This to me is doing justice to the truth - this piece nailed the coffin of lies and half-truth. I thank Achebe for bringing to fore his ardent bigotry and for trading his respect for flimsy $19 a book...

Olodostein: This is uncalled for Gov Rochas. However, the opposition parties would likely do the same, if not worse if given the chance.

Just like a monkey tell another monkey say him too like Banana....

Silly season in politics...

are u saying other governors are not chanced or they are not as dumb as Rochas the presidential hopeful of the igbo nation - if Rochas can be dis silly then Igbos are bereaved of presidential candidate

[quote author=re@lchange]all these talks of auctioning igbo presidency by anybody is arrant nonsense
if any igbo wants to run for presidency of nigeria, would ohanaeze stop him?
if no igbo contests for presidency in 2015 it would be because no one had the resources and clout to contest
nothing more[/quote]did u read the post at all? Or is d issue discussed in the post veiled with symbols alien to dis part of the world? Igbos are trading their chance-

After auctioning their chance to rule from Aso Rock - Igbos will turn around to blame others for their misfortune.

Ohaneze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo Social, cultural and political rallying point is enmeshed in crisis over allegations that some of the leaders have auctioned the Igbo presidency 2015 project due to presidential largesse estimated to run the into billions of naira. This amount includes various sums allegedly released by the presidency for the purpose of settling Ohaneze chieftains in support of the 2011 presidential bid and the second tranche released in appreciation for the role Ohaneze played in garnering Igbo votes for President Jonathan. There is wide spread belief among the protesting Ohaneze chieftains known as the transparency group that other sums, contracts and appointments are being obtained secretly to auction and scuttle any attempt by the Igbo people to present a common front for 2015.
Presently, Ohaneze President General, Ambassador Ralph Uwechue is at loggerheads with the Secretary General, Chief Nduka Eya and Deputy President General, Chief Nnachi Enwo Igaliwey, and Chief Chukwuemeka Onyesoh among others. Uwechue and his loyalists including Chief Joe Nworgu, Chairman of Igbo Day Organizing Committee, among others, are insisting that no such largesse was ever received from President Jonathan. This crisis have become so protracted that Ambassador Uwechue runs the Ohaneze Secretariat from his African House Residence in Asaba and has not visited the secretariat more than thrice in 2012.
Chief Nduka Eya has been insisting that transparency must be the watchword in Ohaneze Ndigbo financial dealings to avoid a situation where Igbo interests are sabotaged. He insists that whatever largesse from anybody, group, forum and even the presidency must as a matter of policy be tabled before the Ime-Obi Ohaneze so that the forum would decide whether to accept the gift or not, and on what condition. Chief Igaliwey claimed that he rejected his own share of Ohaneze national cake of N20 million, which was an attempt to bribe him. He claims that since he rejected and exposed the dealings, his life is being threatened from unknown sources including sources claiming to come from within the presidency. Therefore, the man lives a life of hiding for safety purposes.
The accusations and counter-accusations, which started as unsubstantiated reports have now grown to the point that the documented evidences are volumes and the chieftains, are threatening to expose the entire dealings if the leadership fails to confess and ask for forgiveness.  Since the once secret affair blew open, a lot of Igbo youth organizations and opinion leaders have been going on pilgrimage to Asaba to know whether they can collect their own share from the Ohaneze leader and reports have it that some of these groups did not go home empty handed.  Chief Rochas Okorocha called a meeting at Government House, Owerri in early September 2012 to settle the rift but the two parties stuck to their guns. Three days later he paid an unscheduled visit to Ohaneze Headquarters but met a disillusioned workforce.
 
Chief Nduka Eya, Chief Igaliwey and Chief Emeka Onyeso are leading the group, which insists that Ohaneze Ndigbo is not a one man show and that Ambassador Uwechue must consult widely before any critical decision. They posited that neither the Exco meeting nor the Ime Obi meeting has been called in the past twelve months. When the new National Security Adviser Sambo, was scheduled to talk with Igbo leaders on the state of the nation at the Ohaneze Headquarters on the 13th of July 2012, they accused Uwechue of scuttling the meeting because of personal differences with Senator Chukwumerije.  
They pointed out that Uwechue set up a personal outfit, the Ohaneze Foundation, which he allegedly used to collect billions of naira from the Goodluck Jonathan team under the guise of Igbo interest with the assistance of a presidential aide, Mr Akachukwu Nwankpa. This Ohaneze Foundation as part of its business venture is a transport outfit known as Ikenga Express with a fleet of about 30 buses. They insisted that the presidential aide has hijacked Uwechue and both of them are doing business with the name of Ohaneze and deceiving Jonathan. They claimed that he has cancelled the monthly Ime Obi meeting and Executive Council meeting, which has not held more than four times since the inception of his tenure in 2008
The Uwechue group insists that the Ohaneze leader have been running the secretariat from his personal finances since he came on board as the leader, including payment of secretariat staff salary without any help from the disgruntled group, therefore they should hold their peace. They also insisted that there was no such business transaction and that Uwechue have used personal finances to support Ohaneze since the South East Governors failed to support the body financially. They also believe that Uwechue has not betrayed any Igbo interest if he collected some money to run Ohaneze when other ethnic nationalities were collecting theirs.
Various traditional rulers and elder statesmen in Igboland have tried to mediate on this crisis since the past eleven months to be able to forge a common front to present Igbo interests but the two groups have stuck to their grounds. This crisis almost took the shine off the 2012 Igbo day celebrations held at Asaba, Delta State. Many Ohaneze Chieftains boycotted the Igbo Day celebration at Asaba, Delta State in September 2012. However, Governor Peter Obi graced the occasion while Governor Rochas Okorocha came after the end of the event.
It is obvious that other ethnic nationalities are repositioning themselves for 2015 while Ohaneze Ndigbo is bickering over presidential largesse which informed sources said was also extended to leaders of other ethnic nationalities, including the O’dua People’s Congress (OPC), Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), South South Peoples Assembly (SSPA), Middle Belt Forum, among others before, during and after the presidential elections. The sharing of this national cake has not brought any conflict within other nationalities. They have swallowed their share and cleaned their mouth.
The other ethnic nationalities are repositioning their people in preparation for 2015. The Buhari- Tinubu alliance is a strong South West agenda to recapture power after the turn of the north. The Middle Belt Forum (MBF) is looking seriously in the direction of Senate President David Mark. The Core North in the ruling party, PDP, still has Vice President Sambo as a joker if Boko Haram succeeds in frightening President Jonathan into the creeks. Former Vice President Atiku is still breathing around the corner and incumbent president Jonathan is being prepared by his South South and Ijaw people to re-contest in 2015. It is only the Ohaneze that is still at the level of speech making while others nationalities are strategizing ahead of 2015.
The situation in Ohaneze, if not fixed, will greatly imperil Igbo Presidency project of 2015. The two elephants are fighting and Boko Haramists and other enemies at the slightest provocation are massacring the grasses, the hardworking Igbos. Their means of livelihood are being destroyed with nobody to help them.  The state of infrastructural decay in Igbo land is monumental and is seems the war is not yet over.
A cross section of Igbo leaders including Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife, Chief Orji Uzor Kalu, Dr Dozie Ikedife, Col Joe Achuzia, Chief Charles Okereke among others have canvassed support for Igbo presidency with the mindset that the Igbo body is working assiduously towards it. The optimism may be misplaced because this crisis has taken the front burner and the task of repositioning Ndigbo has been limited to fine speeches and rhetoric without any serious strategizing. Ohaneze cannot continue to chase a rat while the house is on fire. They should settle this rift urgently and not allow this distraction from sabotaging the uphill task of reaching out to other nationalities ahead of 2015.

Ngodigha1: Go and see HID Awolowo now, sucker.

WHEN ARE YOU COMING BACK FROM ALUU? ANIMAL

Ngodigha1: Ak HID Awolowo to publish it. She is alive. She has also secretely told her relatives what happened on that nice day.

YOUR CRUSADE OF LIES END WHEN YOU HAVE NO PROOF BUT YOU WON'T STOP - SINS OF OJUKWU; KNOW WHEN TO GIVE UP

Ngodigha1: He wasn't a coward and has never been a coward. He is also my hero. Reason, because of the dirty slaps he delivered on Awo's face in Jos. He also highlighted to the world that Awo was a beast and people didn't take him seriously. RIP Akintola, the man that landed awo slaps and landed him in prison as well.
I hereby advice GEJ to make Ladoke Akintola university Ogbomosho to a fed university.

you are so comfortable with writing rubbish and half-truths ... i won't blame you its a function of your Igbo DNA - APPARENTLY ACHEBE'S SIN OF HALR-TRUTH IS ACTUALLY GENE MOTIVATED

5columnist: Pardon the typo, I was attempting to single out Awo as an entity and that his decision does not represent the views of most Yoruba people. Yes decision made by him and his cronies.

Awo is a Yoruba leader - infact a Yoruba demi-god and his views on national issues represent that of the Yorubas if not why did Ojukwu single him out for discussion about the involvement of Yoruba in the civil war. Awo is the modern day Oduduwa!!!

Ngodigha1: Asz-licking monkey, what is your problem?. You should be more concerned with the poison Awo drank that killed him than wasting your useless life here on Achebe's memoir.
Do you want to try this:

PROVIDE THE AUTOPSY REPORT ON AWO'S DEATH THAT BACKS YOUR FAIRY THEN I WILL TELL YOU ABOUT A MAN WHO WASTED HIS EXISTENCE CALLING YOU HIS SON -

if this is coming from an Igbo group then Igbo - the lost tribe of Isreal sincerely lost something in the wilderness; their brain. You castigate your own and offer no replacement - the next minute you will be screaming sectionalisation in the scheme of out natiohood. Igbo is still the problem - castigate OUK but praise and support somebody at least for once let your unity withstand the temptation of crude bribe.

5columnist: People are quick to point accusing fingers. Awolowo made his decisons in his capacity as entity and I dont think that decision represents the views of all yoruba people. So I be mused that our western brothers are taking offence. What Awo and his cronies did was wrong. Period.

NOT THE ENTITY AGAIN ABI ITS AWO AND HIS CROONIES - HUMOUR ME

okosodo: the money spent on school fees on you was wasted, have you read the book? After you will start joining them to castigate the namas for protesting the mohammed video whereas you are more goat like

THIS WAS AN EFFORT BUT JUST LIKE YOUR PREVIOUS IMPOTENT CONTRIBUTIONS ON NL - ITS OBVIOUS YOU AMASS IGNORANCE LIKE IBORI'S LOOT. IF YOU MUST KNOW THE BOOK REVIEW IS ON THE INTERNET AND ACCESSIBLE TO ALL RIGHT-THINKING INDIVIDUAL (WHICH WAS WHY YOU MISSED OUT)- ALSO THE EXCERPT WHERE THE BERET PROF DEBASED THE GREAT AWO IS AVAILABLE ON THE NET...MY POST IS NOT ON THE BOOK BUT ON THE EXCERPT. NOW DID YOU THINK I WASTED MY SCHOOL FEES? I AM NOT LIKE YOUR LEADER THAT WENT TO OXFORD BUT LED HIS PEOPLE TO A WAR HE CAN ONLY WIN - WISHING

Kayman4life: Every reasonable man WILL KNW THAT ojukwu is a man THAT WILL always mock u with praises. So dnt think THAT ojukwu actually praise AWO, he said so to let him KNW in all his DIABOLICal effort to rule NIGERIA for jst a day is in vain.......

DONT YOU ALSO THINK THE COWARD IS SCARED OF AWO AND HIS POTENT POLICIES EVEN AT DEATH - OR WHY IN YOUR OJUKWU DIDN'T THE GENERAL WRITE A SINGLE BOOK ON THE GENOCIDE HE LED...OJUKWU I KNOW IS SCARED OF SOMETHING;THE TRUTH

BUT SERIOUSLY CAN Igbos JUST SEEK REDRESS IF THEY THINK THEY HAVE A CASE? AS IN CAN THEY JUST GO THE The International Criminal Court (commonly referred to as the ICC or ICCt)AT LEAST THEY KNOW NIGERIA IS A SIGNATORY TO THE ROMAN STATUE...ITS BUSINESS FOR ACHEBE - EMOTIONS FROM THE IGBOS - A BETRAYAL OF THE TRUTH TO THE YORUBAS BUT IT IS ONE THING TO US ALL - THE PAST

karl max: now that u knw how much each state in every category is getting, if ur from one of those state don't u think its ur civil responsibility to find out when the states get these funds and how they put it in good use to achieve its objective? Now that he made the amount they are releasing to the states public for every one to hear and monitor how it is been spent by the states ur complaining!if he makes it a secret too and give it to the states without making it public people like u would still criticise him WHY because ur are paid to criticise this government.people like u would always criticise any effort made by this government to transform and change the way the country is been governed!between the fund the FG is releasing is a public fund why should he not announce it publicly?the presidents broadcast is meant for the affected flood victims not a paid internet critics like you,they need to knw how much the FG released and they can monitor how the fund is been used to help their situation.or are u bitter that the amount ur oga would get for this flood disaster has been made public!!

I PITY YOUR PASSSION FOR STUUPIDITY - SO WHY IS THE PRESIDENT NOT ON TV MONTHLY TELLING US MONTHLY ALLOCATIONS TO THE STATES - WHY IS HE NOT ON TV TO TELL US HOW MUCH COMES INTO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT POCKET EVERY MONTH - SO WE CAN ACCORDING TO YOU MONITOR HOW IT IS PUT TO USE...THE PRESIDENT IS SO PREOCCUPIED WITH TRIVIA DUTIES AND MOLE-HILL POLICIES - THE PRESIDENT JUST WENT ON TV ASSUMING THE ROLE OF NEMA

Kayman4life: (AWOLOWO IS THE BEST PRESIDENT NIGERIA EVER HAD)........ WHY ARE YORUBA SO COWARD NOT TO KNW WHEN SOMEONE IS PROMOTING THEM OR MOCKING THEM. Chei!!

SO YOU MEAN OJUKWU WAS ACTUALLY MOCKING AWO WHEN HE SAID THAT? DID HE TELL YOU THAT BEFORE HE DIED OF AIDS?

okosodo: I do not see the reason why yorubas want to die in this matter. As a matter of fact i will like to read the book b4 i come to conclusion, the man never said any thing wrong from all the quotes. Awo as a matter of fact betrayed ibos by not declaring republic thereby causing no war as agreed, but instead refused and caused more deaths and problems, though i am still neutral.

as neutral as Ashebe i guess

obicentlis: Stupid rat and dirty swine!

it took you 3 attempts to successfully quote my post ? - thats interesting...if you can go through that pain i will use that as a reason to respond to your attention seeking gesture. Now you have a response

SlyIg: People really fear dis man,infact,Igbo in general cos they think that Igbos will sell out Nigeria if made d president. But im here to assure Nigerians never to fear cos even China is not ready to buy Nigeria. Lets give the igbos a chance cos d worst they can do is ... .

u vomit silly notes, who are the people scared of igbos? you expect me to leave Lagos or Osun to go and support a man that his people could not even applaud. can you people just look inward in solving the myriad problems discipling the fabric of your igbo existence? you blame Nigeria too much for your woes and in asunder uses the energy needed for you collective progress. see igbo is igbo's problem and that is why OUK, Ojukwu and co will only be Aso Rock aspirants.

ubandire: When some people attack china Achebe for stating the obvious it baffles me,funnier is the fact that the Yorubas have taken it very far by calling him names,one fact remains none of u losers will ever get to the level of Achebe.
