Our brothers from the land of the rising tears won't let us rest now with their tears

This is one of tinubu legacy that we all can see, just ask them to mention one thing their agulu fraud did in anambara that is still seen till now then war go start.

They developed everywhere n when e reach to develop their own region cement finish

He used and dumped by the born-2-rule Northerners after fulfilling his purpose -- ditto almost all the Yoruba military officers who fought against Biafra.

ScamHunter:
AI gave examples of his petulance:
Yes, Benjamin Adekunle had multiple clashes with authorities during and after the Nigerian Civil War. His outspoken nature, aggressive war tactics, and lack of political diplomacy created friction between him and the military high command. Here are some notable instances:

1. Clashes with Yakubu Gowon (Head of State)

Adekunle frequently complained that his 3rd Marine Commando Division was underfunded and undersupplied compared to other divisions. He publicly accused the Gowon-led government of neglecting his troops despite their frontline role.

His frustration boiled over in interviews where he criticized the government’s handling of the war. This did not sit well with Gowon and other military leaders.

His removal from command in 1969 was seen as a direct result of his open criticisms. He was replaced by Colonel Olusegun Obasanjo, who went on to take credit for the final phase of the war.


2. Dispute with the Supreme Military Council (SMC)

Adekunle was sidelined from major military decision-making after the war. Unlike other top commanders, he was not given a prominent post or major financial rewards.

He reportedly had issues with senior officers who viewed him as too arrogant and independent-minded. This contributed to his exclusion from the inner circles of power.


3. Clashes with Obasanjo

After Obasanjo took over his command, Adekunle felt betrayed and sidelined.

There were reports that he accused Obasanjo of benefiting from his hard work without acknowledging the sacrifices made by the 3rd Marine Commando.

Their relationship remained strained even after the war, as Obasanjo continued to rise politically while Adekunle faded into the background.


4. Fallout with the Military Establishment

Unlike other officers who transitioned into politics or lucrative business ventures, Adekunle became a forgotten figure.

In later years, he publicly lamented how he had been abandoned, making statements that further alienated him from the military elite.

Final Years

In contrast to generals like Theophilus Danjuma (who became one of Nigeria’s richest men through oil deals), Adekunle struggled financially and lived in relative obscurity until his death in 2014.

He once granted an interview where he expressed disappointment over his treatment by Nigeria, a stark contrast to his battlefield heroics during the war.

What is your ETHNIC NATIONALITY?

oilyngbati:
Vlodomyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine reminds us of Ojukwu of Igbo Biafra in the years 1967-1970, who ignored all advice against fighting an un-winnable war.

Chief Obafemi Awolowo went personally to meet with Ojukwu and advised him against any military confrontation with the federal government, but ojukwu in his nzogbu nzogbu mentality refused to listen and considered Awolowo a nobody.

Some Igbo elders like Chief Mbazuilike Amaechi, Dr. Michael Opara, Zik and the rest warned Ojukwu against that war, but he refused and even placed them under house arrest.

Emmanuel Ifeajuna, in September 1967 advised Ojukwu to surrender because Biafra lacks food, medicine, military equipment and international allies to prosecute the war. Ifeajuna even went on to offer to do the surrendering to the federal side, while ojukwu leaves for exile, but Ojukwu refused and later branded Ifeajuna a saboteur and executed him alongside Victor Banjo. Fast forward 3 years later, after over 3 million lives have been lost, the coward Ojukwu then did that same thing Ifeajuna advised him to do—-went on exile to Ivory Coast in 1970!

Today, in the Ukraine, we have Zelenskyy, stubborn and carried away in his own illusion of thinking he can win Russia. Even with all the NATO support, he has ended up setting Ukraine 100 years back. All over Europe, many Ukrainian young girls are trafficked for prostitution——reminds us of Biafran women in prostitution racketeering…this is what a stubborn leader brings to his people…destruction, death, misery, agony, hopelessness, despair and endless pain!

The Igbo Biafra say they are ready for another war and would allow Namadi cownu and Simon Ekpa plunder them into another un-winnable one. They say even if they loose, they can always recover, after all their fathers bounced back from the last one they lost.
Need I remind this generation of Igbos that their fathers recovered because of the magnanimity of other Nigerians and the Gowon’s mantra “no victor, no vanquished”. Nigerians were good people then, but I can’t say thesame for the present day Nigerians.
Any ethnic group that engages in war with the federal govt and loose, will not have it easy in trying to recover, so peace is the best option. There are more mouths to feed now and everybody eye dey red.

A word is enough for the wise….in war, all is fair. Think about the elderly, disabled, the women and children who are most vulnerable in most crises.

They’re USELESS!

Greenback:
Your darling Buhari worked directly under same Abacha as chairman of PTF and he is known to have truncated democracy in the 1980s but you hypocrites had no problems whatsoever making him president for good 8 years...I am very sure you are ignorant of this 😁😁😁😁

Totally agree with you. Abiola was an insider like them. When u add his popular mandate & his messianic zeal to change Nigeria after witnessing Mandela’s impact during his inauguration, he committed his life to changing Nigeria. I blame the cowardly Yoruba military who chickened out instead coming out with a game plan of forcing Shonekan at gun point to retire Abacha on national TV & install Abiola.

malali:
Babangida was never comfortable having friends that could look him in the face and call him out.
All the people he was comfortable with were "yes men"........
Even till today.....all the people you see around Babangida are "yes men"

MKO Abiola was nobody's "Yes Man"
He was jovial, nice and respectful....but if the candid truth had to be said, MKO Abiola would say it, regardless of whose ox was gored.

If you notice, Mamman Vatsa was also not a yes man
Dele Giwa was a journalist but not a yes man
Abacha was a loyal soldier but not necessarily a yes man

Babangida did not trust Abacha and he also did not trust MKO Abiola
But he trusted Abacha more....thats why he handed over to Abacha.
IBB had acquired so much stolen wealth, he just wanted to spend it in peace and not in exile.

Totally agree with you!

SeverusSnape:
The zombies you're mentioning are like Talibans (Mujahedeen), They don't have a thought process, They've been programmed to believe one thing to the end of their lives.

"Zombies" for a reason.

Totally agree with you!

So much intellectually lazy nonsense online these days.

1. Igbos did not carry out any coup. Nigerian soldiers with a sizeable number of Igbos overthrew the corrupt, violent first republic to save Nigeria from imploding due to the crisis in the Western Region. The plotters were men like Nzeogwu, Ademoyega, Atom Kpera, Fola Oyewole, Ifeajuna etc. Igbo commanders like Ironsi and Ojukwu helped frustrate the coup.

2. Ironsi's Supreme Military Council appointed a special panel to investigate the coup from top to bottom. Gowon was the one in charge of reporting the progress to the council. M.D. Yusuf was in charge of the investigation. Gowon and co were planning their coup so they didn't bother investigating.

3. The only thing I agree with you on is that the Igbos were in charge of everything before the coup. Why would people with everything risk it all to take over what they already control See as you take dribble yourself

So true!

Free2Fly:
Shut up, hypocr!te

You disagree with him because your tribesman is now in power, but agreed with him when Jonathan was there.

Bloody hypocr!tes! There's nothing each tribe has in common with the other, and there's no other country anywhere in the world with such degree of anomaly.

And the country will never make any headway existing with that anomaly

Address the issue of his statement!

Christistruth02:
Sowore plays the Tribal Card too much

Don’t post want u don’t know.

SmartPolician:
America doesn't want immigrants in their country anymore, but Nigerians don't understand.

Massive population comes with overwhelming challenges for working societies. America is not like Nigeria where Buhari announced that any idiot is free to come into, whether they have visas or not.

U don’t even know the meaning of victim mentality!

donleo92:
Since I became grown up I stopped playing the victim card. Since we are Nigerians anything that other Nigerians would enjoy, I must enjoy am..

Bleep that victim mentality

Totally agree with you!

A country that should never had been in the first place

Totally agree with u. Colonialism add gasoline on the fire.

Land grabbing, terrorism, wars, etc. anywhere all have economic undertone.

It is mostly about the natural resources and it has been like this from the days of Adam.

Man wants are insatiable.

Ha ha!

Useless northern elites.

Useless to their own people.
Useless to the nation.
Useless in all ramifications

So daft! U think only LGBTQ will be affected!

Nothing sweeter than that

So true!

chiedu7:
Oga na you sabi oh!

Everybody knows that at the minimum Nigeria should be restructured, if not broken up.

Now those in the North are saying the samething that Nigeria should be broken up

So sad!

And the list goes on. By the time you read this more would have died. The situation is getting out of hand and the Nigerian government has shown that it lacks the will and the capability to protect the life and property of Igbos in Nigeria.

The killings must stop. If you are Igbo and you are still playing the ostrich, it could be you tomorrow, me, or your loved ones.

He’s not the foundation but he’s a USELESS MAN. Nigeria would have been better of if he had achieved his life goal of being a MECHANIC.

Bobodee09:
The man who always put himself out there as a saint.

ObJ is the foundation of the problem we are facing today.

A very greed and selfish man. No one must outshine him ,he always has problem with anything good coming from other people.

Take SE out of the equation. We warned u folks in 1967.

happney65:
Exactly. It is Niger Delta Oil wey wè still dey spend they make us dey together. If it finishes today,that is the end.

As Nature would have it, if it were the North, SE or the SW that has oil in laege deposits like the ND,I'm sure wè wont be having what wè have right now.

But as Nature would have it, None of the Major ethnic group is in charge of it. Most especially if it were the North that has Oil,the country would have gone a long time ago.. Those ones that cant accept 1/3 of what they dish out

We don’t have South. Yoruba destroyed the prospect of South when the aligned with their worst political enemy, Arewa North, to crush Ojukwu’’s Biafra. In helping the North to crush Biafra permanently disadvantaged the South & crushed Yoruba future.

The chicken is coming home to roost today!

AndroBlaze:
When will the south stand up for itself?? Is it when there is another Buhari in power?

Our small and short sighted leaders should insist on nothing less than 50% on derivation. States are equal yet the North has 19 states and almost 60% of the House of reps seats shey?

We should not agree. The formula at worst should be:
50% derivation- 30% equality-20% population.

Who told you Tinubu is interested in restructuring Nigeria? If he was interested in restructuring, he should signed an air-tight agreement with Buhari on timetable of restructuring Nigeria if APC wins 2015 Election & the consequences of reneging on the agreement. He www more interested in using Buhari’s to win power. Luckily it worked out.

happney65:
I dont get this at all. There is almost little or no difference in the current one and Oyedele is saying he has no objection to the Nonesense the Govornors are bringing forward.

Existing VAT sharing formular:
1. Derivation 20%
2. Equality 50%
3. Population 30%

The Tinubu proposed tax reforms formular:
1. Derivation 60%
2. Equality 20%
3. Population 20%

Governors' Forum Proposal:
1. Derivation 30%
2. Equality 50%
3. Population 20%

So tell me if this is what they want to settle for, isnt it Jargons?

P.S. I'm not a Fan of Tinubu,but I support his proposal for the VAT. But if his proposal doesnt go through,I'm sorry nothing good will come out of his administration.

Because if this cant be done by a Southerner. Tell me what can he do?

Resource control
Restructuring the federation
Etc

If he cant do ordinary VAT to favour the areas that bring more,how will he do other stuffs that are tougher than VAT?

Anyways we wait and see before I start calling him a Coward

Who ever told u that the country is real for real change?

RealityOfReason:
This change is like no change at all. I don't see equity in the so called equitable proposal. If we can't decentralize ordinary VAT, what's the future of true federalism in this country? Apparently, the country is not real for real change

And you think Tinubu is responding to them. Born-to-rule Northern leaders yet Tinubu aligned with them to grap power

UltraSolid:
There are levels to the whole power game in Nigeria. GEJ, as President, could never respond like this to born-to-rule Northern leaders who feel the rest of us are here to serve them. Obi the coward will run a spineless Presidency overrun by Northern impunity.

Developments like this show the most qualified Southerner, on all levels, is President of Nigeria currently. Only Tinubu, of all Southerners, can tell a Northern Governor he is incompetent, failed and needs to mind the business he was voted to oversee as Governor.

Ha ha ha!

epainos:
Since the last week of last year, these mobile operators have been providing poor service, including serious Internet connectivity issues. I suppose it is their way of demonstrating to the government that they are serious about this increase.

Personally, I am not surprised because the moment the government removes subsidies in many areas (which we know we cannot afford again), we will undoubtedly begin paying the debts of those who have passed away. Lol. Who the heck do you expect to pay back all the debts?

Plus government is still looting steadily. Lol. It then places an extremely heavy burden on Nigerians. Of course, this is how it will be for a long time. The debts we accumulated from the early 1980s, when the military took over Nigeria, until now are enough to weigh us down. However, continuous looting is suicidal.

Nigeria's situation is unlikely to improve anytime soon. Yes, read my words again. Nigeria will not improve for many people; however, only a few will begin to grow. Two groups of people will become wealthy: politicians and anyone involved in business innovation, data, or oil-related activities.

Yes, credit facilities will become available soon, and they will be a trap for the majority of Nigerians. Most people borrow from paid apps and never pay back, as is customary in Nigeria. Lol. By the time the government introduces credit options, over 95% of Nigerians will be trapped and become slaves in their own country.

As I always advise, run and buy about 6 plots of land now in any location very close to development (maximum of 10 years, the area should be populated...not inside any bush), fence it in, install a borehole, build a small bungalow without furnishings (even a security house attached to the wall is acceptable), and begin growing your food there. Grow more than 80% of your food to save money and live longer.

Nigeria is not going to improve for many people anytime soon, but believe me, those involved in data, oil, and artificial intelligence will enjoy it.


Good luck to you all.

Did you just realize it?

We now have a southern president who got balls.

OLODO RABATA! Police in USA don’t mount illegal & unnecessary roadblocks on USA roads — especially on a busy airport road.
