Don't mind that poster, if you check user history, you will notice that the poster has an agenda against Nnamdi Kanu, Peter Obi and igbos in general.....

Macphenson:
USA will not condone Fulani terrorists madness. China would have roasted Fulani people and exported their meat for revenue generation.

Hausa man sends message to Igbo youths regarding MNK in sokoto prison by Tinubu.....

Lisa, you've said it all..... It is indeed a shame that there are saboteurs in igboland, people like Soludo and Obi Cubana who relish in the continued injustice done to Nnamdi Kanu, stupidly supporting Tinubu for their selfish gains..... They will all be disgraced.... They will pay dearly in due time for betraying their people.....

..... Have you been hearing of federal character again? When it comes to their turn, they decide which laws should be applicable to people. I remember them saying, "We federal character, federal character." All of a sudden, there is nothing called federal character anymore in Nigeria. And you are telling me that such a country deserves to survive? It cannot survive. It was built on iniquity, and we must bring it down, and surely the ZOO will fall. God Almighty is my witness, the ZOO will fall. And it will fall in such a way there will be no escape route for anybody. I'm telling you the truth. You cannot bomb terrorists in the forest. How many times have you bombed Boko Haram? Is Boko Haram not the problem? Is Boko Haram not the principal reason and of course terrorists, bandits including ISIS in West Africa are all Fulani.

For your information, they head the security services, the same Fulani are the ones heading every terror group in Nigeria. The same Fulani people.... All of you are just there moving about sheepishly as if you are zombies, as if you are fools. You have no brain in your skull. Every terror group is Fulani. Those charged with defending Nigeria against terrorists are Fulani people. Those spending the money are Fulani.

Dear Nigerians, when will this your stupidity and idiocy leave your brain? Why were you born this way or is it something from the suya you eat? Where did you get your docility, your hypocritical nature, your cowardice, your.... I lack words to describe your average nature. I don't care if you're an archbishop. I don't care if you're a monsignor. I don't give a damn who you are. Once you say you are a Nigerian, God knows you are an animal......

I did a little research on Biafra and discovered that original ancient igbo dominated nation that existed long before Nigeria, the location we now call the south east and parts of south south today was known as "Biafara" not "Biafra.

The map below was drawn in 1644 by Dutch cartographer Willem Blaeu. Here you can see the state referred to as not Biafra but Biafara. Biafra does not have any logical meaning in the Igbo language but “Bia fara” does, it literally means “come join” in Igbo.

During the Civil War, Ojukwu adopted the Europeanized “Biafra,” but evidence suggests the authentic historical name was “Biafara.” It may be time for IPOB and contemporary historians to acknowledge this original term.... It is "Biafara" and not "Biafra".....

I came across the thread titled "Elections Are Rigged Because Nigerians Want It To Be Rigged - Peter Obi" in which Obi said the following and I quote

....The question you all should ask yourselves today, what is the problem of Nigeria? Nigeria has only one problem, leadership. Political leadership, every other thing God gave it to Nigeria. I can tell you that Nigeria is more blessed than this country (The US). So, if Nigerians know that their problem Is leadership, they will face it and insist that they must get good leadership, so everybody should be part of protecting that vote.....

It is glaring that Peter Obi is being economical with the truth.... Leadership is a problem but it is only a symptom of a bigger problem. Nigeria suffers from bad national leadership not because of lack of democratic processes or participation par say but mainly as a result of a centrist national governing framework that is unsuitable for a highly sectional tribal divisive people that occupy the geographical space you call Nigeria.... No good leader can assume national leadership under this centrist governing structure to rule and effect progressive national reforms without the frustration of pandering to the vicious divisive political forces whether in the form of fulani jihadism, terrorism, tribalism and ethnic profiling, all of which are pushed to ensure a change of government that favors only a section of the country. Any "good" politician in Nigeria (if any still exists) vying for the office of the president must as a matter of urgency, prioritize the full implementation of a new constitutional framework upon assuming power that ensures a total decoupling of current national governing structures from a centralized national system towards totally decentralized one if he or she genuinely wants to help the people of Nigeria....

No good governance can thrive in an atmosphere of systemic injustice, unless the 1999 constitution is totally dissolved and a referendum is conducted that will birth a fresh start, a better union built on trust, justice and equity, nothing will change as bad leaders who offer nothing but corruption, looting and retrogression will continue to dominate Nigeria's national polity through divisive politics. Many Nigerians will continue to be used as willing tools to defend retrogression and bad governance due to their penchant for tribalism and deep religious sentiments, a vicous cycle that only guarantees that the suffering of the masses will continue..... I understand that the main reason behind Peter Obi's stance on political leadership as Nigeria's only problem is because he wants to be president. If by a miracle he wins, he will fail Nigerians if after 4 years his administration, did nothing to address the underlying issues of Nigeria's unity....

More revelation

The beneficiaries, who had previously surrendered to troops in different operations across the state, were processed through rehabilitation camps at the Hajj Camp in Maiduguri, where authorities said they underwent skills acquisition training, counselling, and ideological reorientation.

The Borno State government has reintegrated a total of 720 repentant insurgents, alongside 992 spouses and 2,050 children, back into society after completing what officials described as deradicalisation, disarmament, and rehabilitation programmes under the state’s controversial peacebuilding initiative known as the “Borno Model.”

The beneficiaries, who had previously surrendered to troops in different operations across the state, were processed through rehabilitation camps at the Hajj Camp in Maiduguri, where authorities said they underwent skills acquisition training, counselling, and ideological reorientation.

They were formally reintegrated during a ceremony held on Friday, with officials saying the group constitutes Batch 9 low-risk and minor clients under the state’s ongoing non-kinetic approach to counter-insurgency.

He said the reintegration exercise marks another milestone in what the government calls the “Borno Model,” a framework built on forgiveness, surrender incentives, and rehabilitation.

“It has been a success story since 5th July 2021, when the good people of Borno State under the stewardship of our dynamic leader, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, agreed to forgive and accept their sons who are willing to drop arms and embrace peace,” he said.

According to him, the model has reportedly seen more than 350,000 individuals exit insurgent camps and surrender over time, though the figures remain independently unverified.

He disclosed that those reintegrated in the latest batch had undergone structured rehabilitation programmes at the Hajj Camp, including education, vocational training, and behavioural reorientation.

“Their way back from the bush began with a call from their colleagues encouraging them to surrender, embrace peace and reunite with their parents,” Ishaq said.

He added that individuals who surrendered were initially profiled by the military, while those in possession of weapons handed them over during the process. However, he acknowledged that some who attempted to leave insurgent camps did not survive before reaching military locations.

According to him, successful returnees were later transferred to rehabilitation facilities where they were kept under structured daily routines.

He said Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays were dedicated to vocational training in trades such as metalwork, tailoring, carpentry, bricklaying, solar installation, phone repairs, vulcanising, and motorcycle maintenance, while Tuesdays and Thursdays were reserved for religious instruction, hygiene awareness, and anti-drug abuse education.

Women participants were also reportedly trained in tailoring, soap making, knitting, and related skills.

Ishaq added that starter packs had been provided to support beneficiaries as they return to their communities.

He said with the latest batch, the total number of persons reintegrated under the programme has reached 9,680 across nine batches, covering multiple local government areas including Bama, Gwoza, Dikwa, Jere, Monguno, and others.

He also noted that community leaders and members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) participated in screening and verification processes before the reintegration approval.

Earlier, the Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, represented by the Permanent Secretary, Babagana Kadai, described the programme as a broader effort to restore hope and rebuild communities devastated by years of insurgency in the North-East.

He said the administration of Governor Zulum has continued to earn recognition for its rehabilitation-driven approach, which includes resettlement of displaced families, reconstruction of infrastructure, and social support programmes for vulnerable populations.

Earlier this year, 100 terrorists were released by the government, now it has increased to over 700 terrorists.....When I say that Nigeria is a hopeless cause, a contraption or call it a "zoo" as Nnamdi Kanu rightly calls it, many of you on this platform, will attack my post or get angry because you don't want to accept your reality. How do you justify or convince yourself about supporting the continued existence of a terrible country like Nigeria? How do some of you with a clear conscience look at the brazen injustice that Nigeria represents and still defend it? As long as Nigerians do not push for a referendum, this injustice will increase, Fulani terrorists will continue to enjoy government privilege and protection.... There is no other way to put it, Nigeria is an abomination to not only Africa but mankind, it is an unsustainable mess that has to end.... I expect the usual foolish hostility from many of you that are reading this post in defense of your "One Nigeria" and your government's rehabilitation of fulani terrorists.... It's a shame.

Below is latest news as posted today by Punch Newspaper stating what your terrorist loving government is doing even as many continue to lose their lives, properties destroyed, Oyo state students and teachers remain in captivity while Nnamdi Kanu whose only offense was trying to defend his people against these terrorists remains in prison, a new batch of over 700 real deadly terrorists have been freed by Tinubu and his northern collaborators, they have been shielded from prosecution, reintegrated back into society over a fake "rehabilitation" program to continue from where they stopped....

The Borno State Government has reintegrated a total of 720 repentant insurgents who have completed their deradicalisation, rehabilitation and reintegration programme back into society.

The latest batch, described as low-risk and minor clients, is part of Batch 9 under the state’s rehabilitation initiative and was sworn in using the Holy Quran before being released to return to their respective communities across the state.

The Special Adviser on Security to Governor Babagana Zulum, Brigadier General Ishaq Abdullahi (retd.), disclosed this on Friday at an event held at the Hajj Camp in Maiduguri to mark the completion of their rehabilitation process.

He said the exercise represents another milestone in the state’s non-kinetic approach to counter-insurgency in the North-East, describing it as one of the most effective peacebuilding models globally.

Abdullahi said the initiative, which began on July 5, 2021, under Governor Babagana Zulum, has recorded large-scale participation from former fighters who voluntarily surrendered.

He said, “It has been a success story since 5th July 2021 when the good people of Borno State, under the stewardship of our dynamic leader, Prof Babagana Umara Zulum, agreed to forgive and accept their sons who are willing to drop arms and embrace peace.

“Today, the Borno model is adjudged to be one of the most effective non-kinetic programmes in the history of mankind, with over 350,000 persons who willingly exited the bush and surrendered to the military.”

He added that with the latest 720 beneficiaries, the total number of reintegrated persons under the programme has risen to 9,680 across batches 1 to 9.

He, however, said the reintegration exercise also included 992 spouses and 2,050 children associated with the former insurgents.

He explained that the reintegration process began when repentant insurgents voluntarily exited the bush and reported to military locations, where initial profiling and disarmament were carried out.

He noted that participants were engaged in structured rehabilitation programmes, including Islamic teachings, counselling, hygiene education, drug abuse awareness, and various vocational training sessions.

“The camps’ administrators kept them busy with various programmes geared towards deradicalisation and preparing them for life after camp.

“Tuesdays and Thursdays were for Islamic programmes, lectures on hygiene, drug abuse and other fields, while Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays were for skill acquisition programmes such as metal works, carpentry, tailoring, pot making, brick laying, barbing, cap making, repair of phones, solar installation, vulcanising and repairs of motorcycles,” he said.

Abdullahi said the state government also provided starter packs to support the reintegration of the beneficiaries into civilian life.

He said community leaders, alongside the Civilian Joint Task Force and hunters, screened the individuals before recommending them for reintegration.

“They are from Bama LGA, Kondugua LGA, MMC, Jere, Mafa, Dikwa, Gwoza, Damboa, Marte, Mongunu, Kukawa, Gbambolu Ngala, Kalabarge and Gubio,” he added.

He urged the beneficiaries to return to their communities as law-abiding citizens and contribute positively to peace and development efforts.

Earlier, the Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Hajiya Zuwaira Gambo, represented by Permanent Secretary Babagana Kadai, described the programme as a symbol of hope, reconciliation and resilience.

She commended Governor Zulum for what she described as his visionary leadership in peacebuilding, noting that the administration has continued to resettle displaced families and rebuild communities affected by insurgency.

It is glaring that Orji Uzor Kalu sold himself to the caliphate as a condition to regain his freedom, he is now under their leash to do their bidding against the national interest of his people...

Charito1:
senator my foot, orji uzor kalu is nothing but a confirmed crook.

Sentiment of bigotry? Well, I am not surprised because I expected the hostility from you, many do not like to be told that they are been deceived. If you can't see and accept the truth about Nigeria, no matter how unpleasant it may sound to you because of your wish for an igbo presidency, there is nothing I can do about that. It is only a matter of choice, you and others who may not want to see Nigeria for what it is now, will face the consequences of what ever becomes of the country tomorrow....

Kanwulia:
Sorry, I am not interested in fostering your sentiments of bigotry. Time for dinner.🍷

Your claim that Peter Obi won in 2023 may be true but did Nigeria's political elites allow him be the president? Some Nigerians like you may prefer an igbo presidency but it won't happen, even if by some kind of miracle it happens, what difference will it make if not to polarize further the fragile cosmetic unity, to polarize already existing igbo hateful tribal sentiment and divisive politics in Nigeria. There is no genuine unity for an igbo presidency that will benefit the masses to thrive. Fulani and Yoruba political oligarchs with their foreign collaborators will not support and will work against any kind of igbo dominance in Nigeria's national politics..... Peter Obi and other igbo "efulefus" know this but choose to deceive their followers for their selfish political interests.....

Kanwulia:
Nigerians prefer an Igbo presidency anyday.
Don’t blame the supporters please. It is a NIGERIAN PRESIDENCY.🍷

We have a Yoruba president doing what exactly?🤷🏾‍♀️

We proved that by winning LAGOS AND ABUJA in 2023 according to the same leprous INEC.🌹

Hear for yourself!😍

I can't stop him, am only giving my opinion to him and his supporters..... 2027 is not far, hopefully Peter Obi and those supporting him, pushing for an igbo presidency won't say they were not warned about Nigeria.....

Kanwulia:
Obi is in Nigeria, and believes in Nigeria. Let him work for it.🍷

The situation of Nigeria will get worse as Nigerians continue to recycle retrogression until the majority come to terms to the irrefutable fact that nothing about Nigeria will get better if they do not rise up as a people to demand their freedom from Nigeria through a referendum. There is absolutely nothing to gain from doing the same thing every 4 years installing selfish politicians whose mission is not in your interest but to continue to sell you down the drain to your destruction while singing "One Nigeria"..... A revolution towards referendum is inevitable! It is the only path to true prosperity, freedom and justice for all indigenous people in Nigeria....

garykoeman:
Obi who could not save anambra want to rescue Nigeria.

Nobi juju be dat

The issue here is not about whether Peter Obi saved Anambra or not as a former governor but his continued deceptive campaign that somehow when he is made president, Nigeria will be better. Any one who genuinely want to be sincere knows that nothing can offer any kind of sustainable remedy to the contraption without a national reset through a people backed referendum on it's unity that will end the 1999 constitution.....

garykoeman:
Obi who could not save anambra want to rescue Nigeria.

Nobi juju be dat

Why make a trash comment on what you call trash.... Did I tell you that I am a Peter Obi supporter? How did I promote what you call agulu packaged fraud? Keep deceiving yourself playing into the hands of your oppressors.

Counterigbolies:
I didn't read your thrash but it's like u lots are beginning to realize your agulu packaged fraud is going nowhere

For the past few days, Peter Obi has been trending on various social platforms over his dispute with Kenneth Okonkwo and NDC party leaders regarding party primary finances. Many Nigerians have been on several social media platforms, venting their anger at Kennneth Okonkwo in support of Peter Obi while others attack Peter Obi in support of Kenneth Okonkwo. While the political war rages, I've on several threads on this platform, made the case that an igbo presidency is an exercise in futility, a taboo in Nigeria, I made the case that Peter Obi in choosing to pursue this, is only deceiving his gullible followers with the fake promises he keeps dishing out when he wins (allowed) to rule the contraption. Peter Obi knows he can't deliver, he knows that systemic injustice is Nigeria's second name, he knows that many of his people the igbos will continue to be endangered, persecuted, marginalized and unjustly treated under "One Nigeria". I've tried to call the attention of his cult-like supporters over Peter Obi's lies, the futility of their quest for an igbo presidency in 2027 but none of them are ready to stomach this painful bitter truth, none of them are courageous to see the bigger picture. Even when they know that 2027 presidential election outcome will not be fair to them as long as a dubious power hungry president like Tinubu who enjoys a "One-Party" state is in charge, they continue to wallow in self-deceit hoping somehow they will vote out APC and begin to enjoy Nigeria once Peter Obi becomes president. A pipedream that many may never recover from when reality dawns on them next year.

Peter Obi's popularity has soared over the past few days as more Nigerians are made through media hype to believe in him and his presidential candidacy, many now see Peter Obi as a messiah, not just a messiah but a saint who is different from other dirty Nigerian politicians, this notion is shared partly due to his antecedents as former governor and his campaign rhetorics. Peter Obi may have succeeded in reinventing himself personally from an average everyday Nigerian politician to a messianic saint in national politics, but one irredeemable issue that he will continue to face which will perpetually haunt his political ambition and he won't be able to influence no matter how he tries will be the hopeless vicious tribalism, religious intolerance and ethnic profiling that is at the center of Nigeria's cosmetic union.

Even in the midst of Nigeria's divisive national polity, there are many Nigerians across different ethnicities, who genuinely like Peter Obi and support his presidential campaign, you find these set of people singing his praise everyday on various platforms, they say he is not corrupt, he cares about them that he is a good man..... I am yet to be convinced about all the positives things been said about Peter Obi, especially on the aspect that he means well for Nigerians. How can he be a good man or genuinely care for Nigerians when he sees how hopeless, retrogressive and destructive it is in keeping "One Nigeria" going but choose to support it's continued existence? He continues to connive with other political selfish Abuja opportunists to uphold the subjugation of not just all Nigerians but especially his own people the igbos many of whom have severally called for their right to self-determination to be respected. In my opinion, Peter Obi is no different from other political beneficiaries of Nigeria's rot, just like other selfish igbo politician who know the truth that "One Nigeria" is a hopeless cause but choose to deceive their followers, Peter Obi prides himself as the messiah of "One Nigeria" for no other reason but to fulfill nothing but his personal ambition of becoming the next president of the contraption. I will use this medium to once again remind Peter Obi and his supporters "Obidients" especially those among them who mean well that this quest for an igbo presidency in 2027 will end in shame not because Obi is the worst candidate or that he didn't deserve a fair shot but because of the structural flaws of Nigeria as an entity. Peter Obi will pay the ultimate price of not just losing out totally but will be completely humiliated by Nigeria in due time if he pushes on with his deceit, if he continues to deceive Nigerians, many who genuinely want a better future to end the suffering they face under a forced fraudulent union like Nigeria. It is not too late for Peter Obi to write his name in gold by doing what will actually make a big positive difference in the lives of all Nigerians, which is, collapsing his presidential campaign and instead use the massive political goodwill he enjoys now to support the call for a referendum towards total decentralization or dissolution of Nigeria. Nigerians will be better off in the event of a national reset than recycling same retrogressive electoral process of installing another pretender as president, a move that continues to serve the selfish interests of a few powerful politicians feeding fat on the hopelessness of the masses.

Nothing good or beneficial to the masses will come from an igbo presidency or keeping "One Nigeria" going.... Peter Obi knows this.....

He is senator today doesn't mean that he won't be dealt with by fulani tomorrow. His case in court can be revisited by Nigeria when Tinubu leaves office.....

QuinQQ:
But nothing happened to Orli Uzo Kalu. Isn't he a senator today?

I've read several posts, threads made here on Nairaland and followed the news since it broke between Peter Obi and Kenneth Okonkwo, the criminal conspiracy over aspirants extortion, the shameful mess that NDC political party has become with Peter Obi, Kenneth Okonkwo, Obunike Ohaegbu and other notable igbo politicians fighting themselves, backstabbing themselves, betraying themselves in their desperate bid to serve the contraption.... Personally, I do not pity any of them including Peter Obi because it will all end in futility. they will all be rejected and disgraced by zoo Nigeria when the time comes....

In 2019, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu made a Facebook post in which he revealed how he warned Orji Uzor Kalu severally over his continued stupidity of supporting "One Nigeria". He said I quote.....

Let what befell Orji Uzor Kalu serve as a lesson to others and as I warned them many years ago, serve the Zoo come back in shame.

I warned him when he came to see me in Kuje Prison that those illiterate unity begging "Alimajiris" from the desert don’t love him but he wouldn’t listen.

I warned him that Fulani caliphate will not rest until they conquer, subdue and enslave the entire East and West because of their sense of inferiority complex, but he wouldn’t listen.

I warned him of the pathological hatred these Alimajiris have towards Biafrans (Igbos especially) because our industry and ingenuity expose their mediocrity, but he wasn’t having it. He was a committed One Nigeria apologist.

I reminded him of what happened to Saro Wiwa who like him believed so much in One Nigeria and ended up being killed by the same Alimajiri he served so dilligently against Biafra, but he wouldn’t listen.

Today they are picking them off one after the other because they know IPOB won’t fight for any Efulefu. If he had known what was to become of him, he would have done exactly what I told him during our meeting, join the nearest IPOB family and support the Biafra restoration project.

Isn’t it ironic the only thing that will save Orji Uzor Kalu now is the coming of Biafra. Will Dave Umahi, Okezie Ikpeazu, Willie Obiano, Rochas Okorocha learn from this?

By the time all is said, done and dusted over the mad rush to install an igbo man as president in 2027, when the dust of their foolishness settles, among the desperados, Peter Obi will be the biggest loser for refusing to heed this warning due to the selfish political drive of ruling the zoo. Nigeria will continue to teach all you igbo leaders, political saboteurs a bitter lesson for betraying your people by conniving with the zoo to deny them their right to self-determination. I leave you all with this video of Nnamdi Kanu's prophetic message over igbo presidency below.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRTwPFb2mLQ

So you can attack the writter as you do to some users on Nairaland everyday? It is an edited culled piece, best you focus on the message and not the messenger....

franchasng:
What is the name of the person that wrote all these @op ?

Those who are still in denial, can not understand or refuse to accept the painful truth coveyed by this writer on the hopelessness of the continued illusion of "One Nigeria", still banking on recycling same failed electoral experiment of installing another political selfish opportunist as president because of politicians like Peter Obi are in for a rude awakening.... Since nothing else can wake them from their slumper, the consequences of the 2027 presidential election outcome will surely be the ultimate shocker.... The situation will become so bad, many will eventually come to the realization that no election to install a politician as president can fix Nigeria or liberate them from it's negative effects but only a revolution that will bring about a referendum on Nigeria's unity.... The question remains, how bad will it get before this happens....

Culled from an editorial piece written by a passionate Nigerian.....

What I am going to lay out here is not, as many may persuade themselves to believe, an attempt to discredit everything Nigeria, rather it is aimed at pointing out those things which most Nigerians already know, the roles they have played so far and continue to play in what we call “…one nation bound in freedom, peace and unity;” and why it is outrightly foolish to continue deceiving ourselves that there is going to be any different result from what we have, hitherto, been getting as a country. It is also not, per se, a move to entirely discredit those who have ruled the country in these period of gross darkness. This piece, however, focuses on the many components which make up Nigeria, and the roles played by each - either as a consequence or as the cause -so far. It also intends to emphatically state that, from the military era to this almost 12th year of democracy in Nigeria, the politics and governance applied had remained one and destructive - not to what is deceitfully termed as a nation of “unity in diversity” but to those who have, since 1914, been unlawfully and unjustly pinned to the ground by a name which spells nothing but pains, corruption, wickedness, injustice, depravity, and uncertainty – to those who are still forced into what is ridiculously called “the giant of Africa-” denying them of countries where responsibility, accountability, good governance, peace, unity, equality, justice, security and progress are given their rightful places.

lt will be recalled that several attempts have been made at democracy in Nigeria before the 29th of May, 1999, when Aremu Olusegun Obasanjo took office as President in a democratic government of Nigeria. The first, which took place in the 60s, through Shagari's days, to the June 12th election of 1993 which finally unmasked the agenda of IBB and those whom he represents, were all attempts by insincere leaders, who clearly do not have the interest of those compelled into “One Nigeria” at heart, but continue to deceive and enslave them. Notwithstanding, democracy finally came in the middle of 2009 - howbeit, in falsehood and duplicity which characterize the foundation and spirit of the Nigerian state. Not looking down beyond the periods of the military, and several attempts at democracy before Obasanjo's democratic best (after having ruled as a military head of state) which marked the return to democracy in 1999, I intend to showcase the dividends, so far, in a nation blessed with what several other progressive and peaceful nations of the world do not have, yet grow in leaps and bounds. Someone would say: “speak of the good things about Nigeria, and not always of her abysmal failures.” Well, I beg to differ. Inasmuch as the much talked-about “law of attraction” states that what you speak more is what you have more, I stand to refute it when it comes to Nigeria. For one, there cannot be found, in any other country, sycophants on a constant speedy rise as it is in Nigeria. Nigeria's politicians have the bests of praise singers – and that includes those who innocently announce the so-called leaders' achievements, and those who cannot stomach anything which discredits their source of stomachs' comfort…even if their shame stands at the city center. Another reason is that the law of attraction is the law of nature; Nigeria, however, was built and is sustained by methods that are against every law of nature, and therefore continues to work at cross-purposes to everything that is right. True praise cannot come out from a place where sycophancy has blinded both the electorate and the elected. So, everything a leader does in such a nation stands as people-oriented, credible, and magnanimous –even when the deceit, callousness, and repercussions stare everyone in the face. No wonder the country has become an impossible functionality. Giving a few details of what we have as a country today – from the cause (which is the politics of Nigeria) to the consequences (which affect every other Nigerian), these deadly and continued states of decline are no longer tolerable:

The Presidency

Many Presidents overtime have taken office and left; one is still there. But from the time of Obasanjo's active position to his partial influence over what daily becomes of Nigeria, corruption has remained the order of the day. In his rule, unthinkable amount of money was stolen from the masses in the name of establishing a steady and functional power supply; nothing was seen. The judiciary and the crime-fighting agencies remained puppets at the beck and call of the presidency. The only thing OBJ's eight-year democratic rule did for Nigeria was the advent of GSM (which, by the way, was sweeping through the African continent at the time). Crimes in the political seats made nonsense of his rule, and now that Tinubu has taken over, he is still there – brandishing his authority over a continually oppressed and deprived people of Nigeria- instead of getting out of the way, he willfully refused to address the issues which have impeded the growth of a people bound by the cord of falsehood called Nigeria; nevertheless, his Otta farm is functional, fruitful, and constantly well-managed. Tinubu is closely marking third year in office but what is seen remains the same, howbeit, in worse state. One wonders what excuses he would give after his tenure and if he refuses to do the most important thing which is calling for a SNC before he leaves office. Everyone of them thinks they can change Nigeria, only to find out when they get there that, to them, “it is wiser to scoop whatever one can out of Nigeria before the looming uncertainty becomes certain, instead of standing as a true leader, and lead the people out of this prevailing European falsehood and fraud against Africa. If OBJ ruled Nigeria three times, yet was not even close to touching Nigeria's problem, then we Nigerians- of all people- should know that it has become a critical problem which must be treated from the root. Any president who thinks that, without calling for a Sovereign National Conference (SNC), meaningful strides will be recorded to his name can only be seen as another dreamer, but not as Joseph dreamt because Joseph was honest before God and before man. Any president who shies away from a SNC is not honest before God, to the people, and above all, to himself. Presidents can come from anywhere, but only the president who calls for an all-inclusive conference which will determine the future of Nigeria can be said to have done anything worth recording in the annals of kings.

The Judiciary

Nigerian judges, corruption swells their stomach; they have turned the law (which is to protect the people and the nation) upside down. Every corrupt politician becomes a saint after visiting them at night and after exchanging foreign account numbers. This group sits on the peace, safety, and progress of other Nigerians who are 'unlucky' to find themselves or any of their family members in the circle of politicians. They will extort from you even of your only goat if only they can please the 'high and mighty' in the land with a pot of pepper-soup. They practice what is called witchcraft: evil is good in their sights and the innocent but poor is the guilty one, worthy of a life behind bars or total annihilation. When the foundation (the law) is destroyed, what shall the righteous do?

The Senate/House of Reps

The legislooters only agrees when there is an equal share of national loot among them according to their ranks. They eat a teacher's (the teacher who taught them) twenty years salary in one week -as allowance to themselves. They only make laws which further oppress the masses, while leaving them with every freedom to further carry out their loots or to hide their crimes. They answer and call themselves “Honorable,” yet there is nothing honorable about their wickedness. They oppress their constituents and their perceived enemies; and get away, unscathed, with everything that an ordinary citizen would have been killed for. They only disagree with the presidency when there is nothing in it for them, or when the masses or other groups alone stand to gain.

The EFCC

This group can only pride themselves against the poor and those with no “high and mighty” as backbones. No corrupt case against any poweful politician has ever been successfully prosecuted and the politician jailed by this group. They would arrest and prosecute jobless youths, pushed into different fraudulent activities by the very people who lead Nigeria towards the gate of hell, but the real thieves they will declare and set free. They have become, from inception, a tool to hunt the enemies of the high and mighty that no one dare speaks against.

The Governors

These ones are the gods of their different states, and they are untouchable. No one questions what they do. And taking them before any court in Nigeria would be like buttering their bread because, to them, you would only be giving them free publicity for their presidential campaign. The competition of political posts and power has robbed them of their duties to their states. And who will seat on their case except those whom they or their godfathers appointed to favor them? That is why you see a governor start a project with the state money in his tenure only to include it among his property just before he hands over power. And nobody can successfully do anything about it. They have become as arrogant as King Herod that they are now questioning if the poor truly have any God who listens to them.

Chairmen of LGAs

These ones do nothing but share local government monthly allocation amongst them, go clubbing, and then, fight the poor in their domain who know their rights and insist on having them. A case taken against them before the judge by anyone living within their jurisdiction will be trashed out before a hearing.

The Ward Councilors

For these groups, I have nothing to comment because they do absolutely nothing.

The NNPC

This is the secret cult and another CBN; if you are not connected here, then you are not a Nigerian. They mar the citizenry by every step they take. This is the bloodline of Nigeria's constant decay.

Electricity Discos

Corruption has eaten even the very wires through which they distribute electricity. They are protected by the law to supply electricity to you just for a day, but demand from you a month's exorbitant bill. They simply bully the masses and you can't take a case against them.

Graduates

These, having been caught up in the web of Nigeria's constant decay, now live as though maintaining citizenship in Nigeria has become a do or die affair; and indeed it has. They can be found among sycophants, drug traffickers, high-class prostitutes, fraudsters (which is the trademark of the Nigerian government's relationship with her citizenry), kidnappers, terrorists, human-blood ritualists, and every other thing away from life. The youths must survive, at least.

Hapless Youths

For the majority whose families were caught deeply in the dangers of the Nigerian state, any way is a way. It doesn't matter if they are hired by somebody to betray or kill a friend, as long as there is a financial reward to keep them going, they will jump at it. You may readily want to stand as a judge against these people, but your judgment of them, when Nigeria and those who have led her into the ditch are not yet rightly judged, stands nullified before God.

Religious intolerance

Many countries are made up of many tribes, ethnic, and religious groups; yet, there is hope for that country which has religious tolerance. While other religions have effects like opium, others are decorated with war songs. Nigeria's foundation was dug in falsehood- slanting to accommodate those whose tolerance for other religions is zero. Since then, one injustice has frantically tried to replace the other - to no avail. This same religious intolerance killed education in Nigeria.

Kidnappings

What on earth would you expect the hungry and impatient youth who has taken to kidnappings to do, in the absence of real work or monthly compensation, especially when he is sure that there is too many to go round…hidden by just a few? One thing about social vices is that, if money starts coming in through those methods, it becomes increasingly difficult- even near-impossible -to eradicate, even after good jobs have been provided.

Terrorism

This is the present height and response against the causes of restiveness among youths, for who will allow himself to be used against the innocents in the land except that one who has become totally fed up with the politics of the nation and is within reach to those whose influence is their stolen money?


Those Who Shout: “One Nigeria!"

This group, in those days, would be stoned without delay. They are the “less than 1%” that insists on keeping the 99% of the rest of Nigerians enslaved forever. They are either those who share the country's wealth amongst themselves, (as children would share bread and then go out to play), or amongst those who reap more in a confused Nigeria where no money enters your hand and none of your rights is recognized unless and until you take up arms, you bribe your way, or you sell your body. They use words like: “Nigeria will never break, Nigeria is indivisible, and we are operating a society of unity in diversity.” But, watch them when any of their personal interests are threatened; they go: “Nigeria will break if…, I see Nigeria breaking, Arab spring imminent in Nigeria if, or I will personally mobilize the youths against the government.” In all their statements, it is never the care and concern for the masses that drive them; rather, it's their selfish and insatiable drives to subjugate and dominate everyone and everything else.

The Conclusion

It should be noted that the above descriptions are not personal, per se, but are the consequences of a false foundation upon which Nigeria was built and constantly sustained. It has become a curse which, until the foundation be revisited, can only get worse for those continually used, without their knowledge of what has come over them or the way out except a total overhauling of the system. And it has become clear that the excuse that Nigeria's democracy is young, excuse often given by those who have nothing to offer Nigeria, yet refute the truth, is no longer meaningful. Oil in Nigeria is not young and the looting of public fund by those who are in authority is not new either. I was chief in the faith for a Nigeria where freedom, security, progress, peace, and unity will reign, because I believe that 'true majority' creates greater impact; and I have lived my life, serving “with heart and might,” in a supposed “nation bound in freedom, peace and unity,” in my own chariot. And just as “the heights that great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night,” I have invested my time both to support and defend the big “Nigerian dream.” But time has proven that majority does not always mean the most powerful or successful, or even right; Britain is there for analysis. While many gladly and, even unwillingly, jumped on board the band wagon of Nigeria's age-long celebration of decay, there were many who stuck to the belief that Nigeria is a great nation of great people. That phrase, to them, implied that greatness can only come and be sustained, not merely through majority, but through freedom, peace, unity, equity, justice, responsibility, and accountability. However, having emphatically found and studied the mad and ever-increasing rush of the Nigerian society towards a continued downward slope into depravity, and the impossibility of fighting this demon of insatiability in the Nigerian politics any other way, I arrived at this conclusion:

That Nigerians need a fresh start – an overhauling of the system.

That it doesn't matter what adjustments are made, Nigeria will get worse as long as the foundation which carries all is not revisited.

That a people-integrated Sovereign National Conference stands as the simplest measure to address the hopeless issue of the present Nigeria.

That, for true freedom, peace, and unity to reign in what is today still called Nigeria, there must, of all importance, be a dissolution of the “Nigeria Project" and a subsequent creation of new states from the dismantled and false structure.

That those who still stand in the light of truth in Nigeria should and must, of all urgency, stand up from this day, to declare the truth about Nigeria, the inevitable end of a continued Nigeria, and the way forward – aimed at saving what is left so as to save posterity.

I leave every “true Nigerian” to decide what the truth is about Nigeria, and to stand up – wherever you are, whoever you are, and whatever you are - and demand, this last time, for a change which is, after all, best for everyone.

As long as Nigeria remains one while it is being adjusted without addressing the roots of the decays in various sections of the society, the assurance of falling deeper into a worse Nigeria is not just unmistakable, it is inevitable.... Many have likened Nigeria with other countries that have fought and still remained as one; they, however, have refused to look critically at the glaring dissimilarities between Nigeria and those countries. Countries with predominant adherence to a particular religion have scarcely survived where corruption constantly raid the polity, how much less would a country, like Nigeria (where religious intolerance has become a political tool, and tribalism merged with religious bigotry to constantly oppose every meaningful progress) be hopeful? The issue of a Biafran state and any other state which should come out from what is still referred today as Nigeria should not be read in Africa's definition of secession; and calling for a dissolved Nigeria should not, in any wise, be seen in the eyes of Africa's definition of treason. If anything, this generation must understand that freedom is nature's no. 1 gift to man, and freedom is what democracy fights to protect. If, in my honesty and quest for a better society for my people, my neighbors, and posterity in what is still called Nigeria, I'm associated with anything secession or treason…without mentioning unity, then, those behind such notion have lost every right to lead and to represent any portion of the human race - no matter how small, insignificant, uneducated, uniformed, frightened, cowardly, poor, helpless and/or hopeless those oppressed may be....

Are you still in self-denial....?

You continue to hug your fantasy while begging for the chains around your neck not to be removed.... I told you back then and I will repeat here, voting for any politician in an election in Nigeria to occupy federal public office positions such as the president and expecting national progress when the foundation of the country is faulty will continue to be a futile exercise that does nothing but to reinforce the vicious cycle many Nigerians are facing today..... Nigeria's continued existence in it's current form will only worsen the situation of the people without referendum on it's unity. As long as the cosmetic unity is upheld over a forced union, hateful tribalism, nepotism, dangerous ethnic politics and religious intolerance will continue to increase. There is no way anyone can solve these problems by keeping "One Nigeria" going. Even if a "good" politician with good intentions becomes president, he or she will suffer as a result of these problems overtime.

As I told you before, the reason why Nigerians like the igbos who may want a referendum to allow them leave the contraption cannot get it through government is because all politicians currently occupying public offices are the number one beneficiaries of "One Nigeria", the divisive status quo was well crafted overtime by them for their selfish interests so they will resist any change. The only way to bring about a referendum that will allow indigenous people to leave is through a revolution. I am still waiting to see how you and your likes will remove a power hungry deeply corrupt presidential incumbent like Tinubu from office next year with your Peter Obi candidacy. Hopefully, you will learn a thing or two about the contraption over the outcome of 2027 election. Until then I leave you with your fantasy......

budaatum:
In that thread I pointed out to you that a referendum is people going out to vote on an issue, and that to get a referendum on any issue, people would have gone out to vote for people who campaigned to offer a vote on a referendum in the first place. But it seems that you don't want to vote for people offering a referendum and just want to impose destructive anarchy on Nigeria because, in your own view, "Nigeria is purely a colonial concept that offers nothing but injustice", and anyone who disagrees with you must have been "deceived into the "One Nigeria" mantra by selfish politicians".

What you fail to realise is that those supposed "selfish politicians", even if your "nothing but injustice" were true which it isn't, are voted for and elected by us Nigerians. And if we want "unselfish politicians", we the Nigerian voters just need to recognise them and elect them or even become unselfish ourselves and run for office and hopefully convince enough unselfish Nigerians to vote for you. But you speak like you have not bothered learning our post-colonial history, and seem to think you will get your unselfish politicians in some other way, like some taking over the reigns of power and imposing themselves on us, as if you were born long after that was how Nigeria used to get its leader who turned out to be uberselfish!

Fortunately not many Nigerians support the selfish anarchical tirades you keep posting on Nairaland. It might indeed be because our brains are washed and not dirty like somes.

Tinubu and his Yorubacentric government is playing with fire..... Igbos, IPOB are already challenging the government's latest move in court, here is the link- https://punchng.com/nnamdi-kanu-ipob-queries-conviction-after-fg-cross-appeal/

I had earlier refrained from replying but will do so to set the record straight even though you choose to resort to insults in your reply.... It is your opinion and you are entitled to it but not all opinions are truths when subjected to scrutiny.... I marked you out because of your antecedent... When I created a thread sometime last year or earlier this year about the need for a referendum on Nigeria, it was you that kept making the case that Nigeria's problems will be solved through voting. There is no harm intended just calling you out on what you stand for....

On what you said regarding igbos doing business in your Yoruba villages and towns, should their trading activities be a contentious issue even if igbos were not Nigerians? Many Yoruba people do trade in other parts of the country, many also go as far as UK to do business, they are making money there and the host communities do not attack or jail them for that.... In fact there are many of them that have refused to return to Nigeria, how is that different from what igbos are doing in your village or any other part of south west region.....? Does it mean that if Biafra were to exist, they won't still enjoy such privilege if they meet the legal requirements?

Religion as a concept is not the problem but religious intolerance is part of the problem but not the root problem of Nigeria. The reason why we may never agree on this platform or even in the real world is because of how you view Nigeria, your continued false assumptions over a unity that does not exist, your continued acceptance of the notion that Nigeria is an indivisible indigenous African creation that must be sustained against all odds, you some how think that Nigeria is part of your heritage and if broken, may lead to your extinction. It is glaring that this way of thinking was exactly what your British colonial masters wanted you to believe..... Until you let go of colonial psychological conditioning and accept the irrefutable truth that Nigeria is purely a colonial concept that offers nothing but injustice, you and many others being deceived into the "One Nigeria" mantra by selfish politicians will continue to wallow in self-delusion with nothing to show for it while they steal away your future.... Without total decentralization or outright dissolution, Nigeria's situation will continue to get worse ....

budaatum:
Odd that I did not notice that it is your thread before I responded. Please know that voting is not the solution to your own specific problem. Education, the sort that teaches the use of the mind and senses, might solve some of your problem though.

Religion is a national problem in Nigeria. It promotes belief instead of sense use, and no amount of voting would directly solve that, though enough people promoting the reform of the Nigerian education system might.

Now, to your supposed "truth" that "many of your people the yorubas do not like the igbos". First, "many" does not mean 'most'. And those "many" are ignorant, just as you are for hating others.

On the way to my Orolu Kingdom after you leave Osogbo, the Igbos are renting roadside buildings and are converting them into white good shops, and now my own Yoruba people don't have to go to Ibadan or Lagos to buy fridge that they can not return if it don't work.

Some "many" people in the area are indeed unhappy that the Igbos are "taking over" as they call it, and are expressing hatred, but those are the lazy phuks who smoke colo all day and can't afford anything white. They hate me their Yoruba family too because I don't feed lazy phuks!

Please know that I have not in anyway forced those industrious Igbo people to unite in my Kingdom and open their shops. They choose to unite in my Kingdom, and my Kingdom welcomes them.

I'll tell you about ChukwuTomato one day, though I suspect I might have already.

The man didn't say it for engagement.... You can see from the video that he was serious. This sentiment against Nnamdi Kanu is not isolated but shared by many other yorubas including some users of this platform....

PDJT:
- That bigot is only looking for engagement. Due to poverty and lack of opportunities, everything is now content to them.

@budaatum the Nairalander that likes to apply voting as a solution to all national issues so you show up on my thread once again.....

You may be saying the truth about yourself liking the igbos as a yoruba person (I don't know your gender) but you can't ignore or pretend over the truth that many of your people the yorubas do not like the igbos, they are actively working against them as I am making this post. If you are still in doubt, check threads users create here on Nairaland and see for yourself, the animosity and deep tribal anger users portray against igbo people like Peter Obi and Nnamdi Kanu daily....

The same treacherous envious attitude being portrayed by Yorubas against the igbos goes beyond cyberspace to the real world, you will find it in communities, in neighborhoods, among neighbors, among colleagues in the office and even among church members.... The creation of "One Nigeria", forcing igbos and yorubas into one country was an injustice done to both tribes, igbos remain the only tribe that has overtime, genuinely made effort and continue to make effort to undo this injustice till this day.

Nigeria will continue to be a source of pain and hateful tribalism until a referendum is done to dissolve or totally decentralize it.... I know you like Nigeria and don't want separation, the earlier you accept the bitter truth that Nigeria is nothing but a colonial project meant to subjugate you the better.....

Unity is not by force, a forced unity is nothing but an unbearable unsustainable bondage that brings pain and destruction to all parties.... It has to end for the people to be free....

budaatum:
I think your problem might be that you keep looking out for people hate while ignoring those who don't, which makes me wonder if you are not the hater.

Why do you deceive yourself just because Tinubu is your tribe man? Comparing fulani terrorists to Niger Delta militants is the height of self-delusion.... Do you really think that this government can solve the security crisis caused by Fulani terrorists?

LOLSeeComment:
truthera
Truth be told. You guys started all these things. I remember the days of Isakaba and the likes, before Niger Delta started kidnapping expatriates. That time we don't generalized. In fact we glorified kidnapping in SE at the time. You guys should relax and let government solve the issues the way they solved Niger Delta issue. Security is a complex matter.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbVV9pU5eA4

"Igbos, stop talking about Biafra and Nnamdi Kanu when we are in security crisis.... " - Yoruba man foams....

When I see videos like the one highlighted by Lisa, I wonder, how long will many yoruba people, south westerners keep up the hate, sabotage and witchhunt of igbos who have done no wrong to them, whose only crime was to demand for an exit from a unworkable toxic union.... How long will many south westerners continue to aide fulani in denying igbos their demand to end Nigeria while looking away as fulani destroys and conquer their ancestral land....

It is pathetic that even as Nnamdi Kanu has been jailed, condemed to serve life imprisonment by a yoruba judge, there are still many who can't let go of the hate they nurse against him just because of tribalism.... No one deserves to be in a toxic destructive divisive union that "One Nigeria" represents....

If he is not a figurehead why has Tinubu not sacked NSA Ribadu.....? How do you explain the incessant ambush, abductions and killings of Nigerian soldiers by Fulani terrorists and when these terrorists are captured, they are made to undergo "rehabilitation" then released to continue from where they stopped.....

Bizibi:
Who told you he is a figurehead Nigerians and emotions
